FaDe: RESTful service for failure detection in SOA environment

Abstract

FaDe service is a novel proposal of failure detection service based on REST paradigm for SOA environment. It is fully distributed service. Internal communication between FaDe nodes can be realized using two communication protocols (gossip, Kademlia). It makes the nodes cooperation efficient and provide good level of scalability. The failure monitoring is based on accrual failure detector which provides flexibility in the context of different client expectations considering the speed and accuracy of detections. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
