Grand SLAM
From SPACE Wiki
Grand SLAM is a modular SLA-driven monitor which informs about compliance and violations of web service contracts. It measures and aggregates system and service properties and stores the monitoring results for further refinement in a database. It can incorporate measurements from external sensors such as instance-level monitoring.
Through an SLA abstraction library, Grand SLAM can process several SLA language formats and can easily be extended to cover more formats.
It offers web service interfaces for registering contracts. Access to the monitoring results is possible through MaaS.

Technologies
OSGi is used for the modular architecture which allows adding and removing bundles for measurement and aggregation at any time. MySQL is used for storing the data, although other databases should be possible using JDBC.

Special instructions for Grand SLAM
As an OSGi-based component, it is currently not trivial (or in fact possible?) to build the bundles in batch mode without Eclipse. Therefore, a convenience export is made available from time to time at the following URL:
