SOMA Base Platform Release

 

Module name: SOMA.

It has been developed and tested on JDK 1.3.1 and JDK 1.4.1 and fully integrates the SOMA security model. It provides:

  • the basic SOMA agent support;
  • the MAPI monitoring component that achieves visibility of both kernel and application state indicators via the interworking with JVMPI, JNI-integrated native modules and SNMPv3.0 agents. Moreover there are agents for distributed monitoring, control and management based on MAPI, already implemented.
    Note: after the JDK 1.5 recent release and because of the changes introduced in the new JVM, we are actually re-designing this specific module. Moreover, the first design of this module was done on top of JDK 1.2, and the module exhibits some instability when used with JDK 1.4. We hope to come out soon with a new updated release of the MAPI monitoring ;-)
  • the integration with the Entrust commercial PKI. It requires the additional availability of an LDAP-compliant directory server for security profiles and to be licensed for the utilization of the Entrust infrastructure.

    Note: this can be disabled by need.

     

The distribution also includes:

  • a readme file for the initial configuration;
  • several examples of SOMA agents;
  • a build file for Ant to build/run the project and produce the Javadoc documentation
