Introduction

The Orchestra Runtime is used to run the communication scenarios developed in the Orchestra Designer in a productive environment. With the Runtime comes the Orchestra Monitor, which also provides a comprehensive view into the operation of your Orchestra Runtime environment.

While the Orchestra Runtime executes the communication scenarios created in the Orchestra Designer within a productive setting, the Orchestra Monitor offers real-time insights, status tracking, and diagnostics for these running scenarios.

It enables administrators and operators to observe process flows, monitor message exchanges, and quickly identify potential issues, ensuring smooth and reliable data integration across connected systems.

Key Features​

  • Real-Time Process Monitoring: Track the execution status of communication scenarios in the Orchestra Runtime as they happen.
  • Message Flow Visualization: View message exchanges between connected systems for better transparency and debugging.
  • Scenario Status Overview: See active, completed, and failed processes at a glance.
  • Error Detection & Diagnostics: Identify and analyze processing errors with detailed logs and context.
  • Performance Metrics: Monitor throughput, processing times, and resource usage to optimize performance.
  • Integration with Orchestra Designer: Seamless linkage to scenarios created in Designer and executed in Runtime for end-to-end traceability.
  • User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive dashboards and filtering options to quickly find relevant information.
  • Security: Security is a top priority in our web-based solution. The platform incorporates various measures to protect user data and ensure compliance with industry standards. Regular updates and security protocols safeguard against potential threats.

Backward Compatibility​

Soffico emphasizes the importance of backward compatibility in the development of Orchestra. To facilitate this, the Orchestra Customer API is provided. This API serves as a layer that encapsulates access to internal functions, thereby ensuring backward compatibility when utilizing direct Java API calls.

If users have implemented direct access to internal functions within their own Java classes, mappings, channels, Java activities, etc., this function may be bypassed. Consequently, backward compatibility for scenarios supported by the Orchestra Customer API may not operate correctly with older or newer versions of Orchestra. This situation does not indicate a malfunction or defect.

To ensure proper functionality during a version upgrade, it is essential to employ appropriate quality measures. This includes establishing a test environment where the functionality of Orchestra and the installed scenarios can be evaluated during the upgrade process.
