As enterprises start to deliver applications to the cloud, the need for a secure, well-governed, and reliable cloud platform that exploits the elasticity of the cloud is evident. This is where we believe TIBCO Silver CAP becomes very relevant for enterprises. TIBCO Silver CAP is built with a focus on rapid delivery of enterprise-ready, secure applications is essential for enterprises to truly realize the benefits of the cloud.
From Months to Minutes
TIBCO Silver CAP was designed from the ground up to shrink the time it takes to deliver enterprise-ready cloud applications – without compromising any of the reliability, scalability, and security requirements of Global 2000 enterprises.Scaling to Meet Business Level SLAs
TIBCO Silver CAP leverages TIBCO's event-driven middleware to sense and respond to changes in application usage. This elasticity means you get precisely the computing power you need to meet service level agreements.Built-in Governance
TIBCO Silver CAP provides an agile infrastructure that delivers governance where and when you want it.
- IT Executives: Harness a secure and elastic infrastructure on the cloud to meet your needs.
- Architects: Design for business value, not just another infrastructure.
- Developers: Escape the tyranny of only having one tool in your tool belt.
- Administrators: Manage cloud-enabled applications without a significant learning curve. Manage cloud SLAs in real time.
Composition/Orchestration: TIBCO Silver CAP provides an SCA-based composition environment that allows heterogeneous services to be wired together in a loosely coupled fashion so service developers do not have to write any plumbing or communication code. The platform provides a rich set of language containers that give architects the flexibility to construct composite applications using services developed in various programming languages.
Integration/Communication: TIBCO Silver CAP’s integration backbone enables services to communicate with each other using a choice of transports and protocols. TIBCO Silver CAP leverages its enterprise-class enterprise service bus for integration and mediation between services in the cloud as well as between the cloud and internal data centers.
Performance / SLA Management: Each node in the TIBCO Silver CAP deployment environment has a built-in agent that constantly monitors the performance and health of the node and the services deployed on the node. These agents track business and infrastructure SLAs and can take appropriate corrective action to grow and shrink capacity based on usage of the application. This completely eliminates the need for manual intervention by providing an application-aware elastic fabric that can automatically grow and shrink based on predefined rules. TIBCO Silver CAP uses complex event processing technology to introspect and detect relevant business events and take appropriate action.
Governance: TIBCO Silver CAP provides design-time and runtime governance to effectively manage the lifecycle of applications and services that are part of the application. Runtime policies for authentication, authorization, encryption, non-repudiation, and logging can be set so that enterprises can have complete control over access to the application and resources (databases, mail servers, files, etc.) that are a part of the cloud deployment.
Utilities: TIBCO Silver CAP provides for shared resources (DB, HTTP, File, SMTP, Security). This allows developers to define them once and use them across different services in an application. This simplifies the configuration of the application and allows easier movement between various development, testing, staging, and production environments.
