- Service consumers and back-end providers – Your consumers are able to access the DPOD console directly in order to investigate service availability or other problems. Service errors resulting from faulty back-end services can be easily tracked down and resolved between consumers and back-end providers directly, without requiring an intermediary.
Service providers can easily view transactions by origin IP address, discover who their main consumers are, and obtain operational data such as service latency, throughput, etc. - System administrators – DPOD provides your administrators with all the data required to quickly assess the DataPower network state in terms of health, service availability, security and performance. DPOD’s single viewing console removes the need to log into each Gateway separately.
- Developers – DPOD provides developers with a central view of services, transactions, message payloads and full performance data. It can therefore serve as an invaluable tool during the development cycle. By provisioning developers with (restricted) access to DPOD, you can free up your administrators' time by removing the onerous and time-costly task of supporting developers during the debugging process. When a problem occurs, DPOD's data quickly points out the culprit, without the need to dive deep into logs or DataPower integration code.
- Managers – DPOD provides team leaders, CTOs and higher-level managers with an instant yet detailed insight into the state of their SOA network and services, all at a single glance. Full SLA information is easily aggregated, using data from DPOD's database.
- System operators – Operators can easily troubleshoot production errors and other types of malfunctions via the DPOD console. They can successfully track down the origin of most problems, even without specific knowledge of DataPower administration. DPOD’s single viewing console removes the need to log into each Gateway separately.
- Security officers – DPOD provides security officers with forensic information for services and transactions. Security violations are viewable and searchable by relevant categories such as content validation (e.g. XML attacks), authentication, certificate and encryption, etc. Future certificate expiration can be configured to display well in advance using the Expired Certificates view.
