Patent number: 8402311Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of monitoring activity with respect to a distributed application. A server system includes logical tiers, each including processing system(s) configured to process messages in accordance with a respective protocol (e.g., an ASP.net® protocol, WCF protocol, SQL protocol, etc.). When a user initiates an activity with respect to a distributed application, hops are performed between the logical tiers and/or between components of the distributed application to complete the requested activity. A hop is a transfer of a message or a procedure call from one processing system to another processing system. A common identifier may be assigned to each of the hops that are performed with regard to the activity. If a failure occurs with respect to the activity, the common identifier may be used to gather information regarding the hops. For instance, the information may be used to determine a source of the failure.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2010Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Venkata Seshu Kumar Kurapati, Ilarie G. Letca, Ashvinkumar J. Sanghvi, Dhananjay Madhusudan Mahajan, Alexandre A. Coelho, Rajeev Sudhakar, Anandha Ganesan

Patent number: 7689921Abstract: A method and system for displaying information related to a plurality of resources in a network environment. The system uses web technology to receive and store information related to back-end resources and to provide a framework by which client computer systems can manage the plurality of back-end resources in a uniform manner. In accordance with one method, a request is received to display object information from different network resources. In response, attribute and task information is retrieved from the appropriate different network resources and this information is displayed. A graphical user interface (GUI) displays information related to network resource objects. The GUI includes a console displaying a tool zone and a work zone. A module is displayed in the work zone having an object zone displaying a list of objects and a task zone displaying a list of tasks.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2006Date of Patent: March 30, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vij Rajarajan, Kishnan Nedungadi, Brijesh Bhatia, Casey Kiernan, Anandha Ganesan, James Johnston, Lauren Gallagher, Kevin Hodge, Tom Martino, Cary Rohwer, Andrew Hayes, Annette B. Hall, Audrius Zimnicks, Mel MacMahon

Patent number: 7577888Abstract: A system and method for monitoring processes corresponding to measurable values based on signatures associated with the measurable values is provided. The signatures can be created based on data from auxiliary data sets or auxiliary data sources. Additional monitoring information can be obtained by collecting dimensional data for the measurable values.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2006Date of Patent: August 18, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Rajeev Sudhakar, Anandha Ganesan, Ashvin Sanghvi, Ilarie Letca, Thomas Theiner, Dhananjay M. Mahajan

Publication number: 20080201465Abstract: A remote server managing multiple client computers at a customer site communicates with a server at a service provider site. A proxy gateway at the remote server allows communications through a network to the server at the service provider site. Remote monitoring of the multiple client computers may be performed at the server at the service provider site through a central monitoring console.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2007Publication date: August 21, 2008Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Dustin Jones, Tom Keane, Lorenzo Rizzi, Ian Jirka, Ferit Findik, Murat Ersan, Jakub Oleksy, Lee H. Chang, Vitaly Voloshin, Nadir Ahmed, Sandy Phadke, Anandha Ganesan, Joel Pothering

Patent number: 7308440Abstract: A method and system for representing an object in a network environment. The system uses web technology, preferably XML-technology, to receive and store information related to back-end resources and the objects managed by the resources. Initially a first schema document conforming to a property sheet definition, such as an XML document type definition, is used to define a property sheet, the property sheet having object-type information. Next, the two or more schema documents that conform to a property page definition, such as an XML document type definition, to thereby define a plurality of property pages are incorporated into the property sheet and the different property pages may originate from different resources. Using the property sheet and its associated property pages, a representation of the object may then be displayed.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2001Date of Patent: December 11, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vij Rajarajan, Kishnan Nedungadi, Casey Kiernan, Mel MacMahon, Anandha Ganesan

Patent number: 7299274Abstract: A method and system for management of a plurality of resources in a network environment. The system uses web technology, preferably XML-technology, to receive and store information related to back-end resources and to provide a framework by which client computer systems can manage the plurality of back-end resources in a uniform manner. Using these communications, the management system uniformly associates information from the various resources via various multi-step, scenario-based functions, such as, for example, searches, monitoring, scripting, software deployment, etc. That is, the management system is able to provide easier, higher-level operation options to the administrator based on the associated information related to the various resources.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2001Date of Patent: November 20, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vij Rajarajan, Kishnan Nedungadi, Casey Kiernan, Brijesh Bhatia, Mel MacMahon, Anandha Ganesan, Andrew Hayes, Audrius Zimnicks, Jeff Robison
