sCrawler finds out the Designtime Dependecy of SOA artifacts (viz. Service Bus and BPEL Components, Adapters, Third Party Services ) and produces a graph. This graph can be used by any XML based front end to generate visual end-to-end dependency of SOA Designtime artifacts.

The new version has been updated with Thread Pool support, non-redundant Iterative Recursive Algorithm,Adapter differentiators and faster GraphML generation routines.

Currently supports Oracle SOA Suite 10gR4.

Features

1. Provides a graphical end to end view of SOA Designtime Artifacts
• ESB Services
• BPEL Processes
• Inbound and Outbound Adapters
• Abstract WSDLS
• External Services
• Message Exchange Patterns
2. No understanding of Oracle SOA required
3. Zero configuration, Ready To Run
• Only input is URL of a SOA Artifact
• Runs as a Standalone Application
4. Scalable
• Thread Pools, Thread Safe, Deterministic response time
• 101 Integration Flows, 263 artifacts crawled in 21 seconds at an average of 72 milliseconds per artifact on Oracle Application Server running on a single 2.2Ghz CPU in a Single Thread Model
5. Complete separation of concern: sCrawler Graph Vs Visualization
6. Can be plugged with any XML based graphics Rendering Engine
• sCrawler -> Flex via BlazeDS
• sCrawler -> SVG via Batik
• sCrawler -> Microsoft Documents via Apache POI
7. Quick and Effective Impact Analysis
• Finding bottlenecks (Fan Out, Fan In)
• Finding Impacted Services or Processes
• Immediate child processes impacted
• Message Exchange Patterns between Services
8. Graph can be extended for
• Discovering Paths for Parallel Deployment
