IDOL Sentient Dashboard

The IDOL Sentient Dashboard is a stand-alone front-end Web interface that allows administrators to manage all of IDOL's modules and services, whether they are running locally or remotely. It provides application administrators with a complete workbench to monitor and control all aspects of system performance.

Dashboard monitors all IDOL's "child" services in real-time and presents bottom line statistics on index rate, peak load, de-duplication and redundancy in all target repositories via graphics and figures.

Editing & Configuration

Dashboard facilitates the architecting, configuring and deploying of an IDOL system. In the Topology Explorer window, administrators can architect a system by simply dragging and dropping components from a palette of pre-configured base definitions (i.e. HTTP Fetch, Distributed Action Handler) as well as custom-defined definitions. Using a simple GUI, the administrator can link the components together to set the flow of information, as well as apply modifications along the way (e.g. number of instances). Dashboard allows connectors and indexing processes to be easily configured and controlled before deployment. All aspects, which are bundles of parameters, can be configured. Once the architecture is established, the same application can be used to deploy the system across the network, making it immediately available to end-users.

Centralized Simultaneous Service Control

Dashboard provides full control to start, stop, pause and restart services such as IDOL Server, Distributed Handlers, group servers or connectors via Service Control Management (SCM) or direct HTTP communication.

Fully Configurable Monitoring

Dashboard gives administrators all the tools they need to monitor the performance of the Autonomy installation. It displays the statistics and status information of every Autonomy service across a multi-node, distributed architecture, including:

Service Status
Service Location
Product Type and Version Numbers
Logging
Document Tracking
Statistical Generation
Graphical Analysis
Tabular Analysis

Advanced Alert Triggers

Dashboard can automatically alert administrators to concerns in any type of data repository, via email, log files or SMS. Irregularities such as a user searching for material contrary to his or her security level or, more subtly, browsing outside their normal area of interest can instantly be flagged.

The "conceptual efficiency" of materials such as FAQ's, statutory and educational documents can be measured on a per user, departmental, demographic sample or global population basis. "Return" and readership statistics across such material can be displayed in real-time in addition to "point of entry" analysis for each document type.

Sentient Architecture

Advanced heuristics manage the system on behalf of the administrator, correcting available bandwidth and a target site's responsiveness. The ability to support distributed architectures, identify potential problems and prompt a real-time, dynamic substitution ensures 24/7 uptime.

Auto-Remediation

By combining analytical data with standard, real-time administrative housekeeping tasks, the dashboard can automatically spawn new aggregation processes to cover identified corpus gaps.

Modular Design

The modular nature of Autonomy's architecture gives administrators the flexibility to address performance constraints on an individual component basis. The ability to scale these components independently means that only the affected parts of the system need to be extended, yielding platform cost-savings in areas that are not growing.

Security and Confidentiality

Autonomy separates the business role and the administrator role, in effect, assigning "super-user" privileges to a business owner. The technical administrator is then only assigned sufficient rights to manage and operate the system, but lacks the level of access granted to the business owner, which includes visibility of the data itself, thereby establishing a system of checks and balances.

Dashboard is also compliant with Autonomy's mapped security so that for a given level of entitlement, the system may reveal the query but not the person who made the query. Autonomy also recognizes that privileges can change over time and provides intradocument security based on the occurring concepts. It keeps a record of all the logs that are accessed and this audit trail cannot be edited or destroyed, not even by the "super-user" or the administrator.

Key Benefits:

Central Administration of Global Architecture
Real-Time Analysis and Alerting
Guaranteed 24/7 Uptime
Minimizes Manual Administration Overheads
Unprecedented Granularity of Analysis and Control
Secure Administration
