MODULE FOR REAL-TIME CAPTURE AND STORAGE OF PARAMETERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OPERATION OF COMPUTE NODES

Abstract

In the field of telecommunications, real-time processing of multipurpose information flows, such as video processing, is required. To achieve the effectiveness of these complex processes, effective management of the used computational infrastructure is necessary to conduct real-time monitoring and analysis of data resulting from the nodes involved in the processing. There are many tools; both paid and free of cost, developed to perform monitoring. Still, a more straightforward, generic, scalable, and fast design is required to ensure the proper functioning of these highly complex applications. In this work, we have developed a real-time monitoring system based on the integration of Shell scripts and modules programmed in the C++ programming language on Linux operating systems. This solution performs the capture, storage, and analysis of data associated with computing nodes in high-performance applications executed in parallel or distributed compute nodes. The validation of the system operation solution was performed based on the analysis of the acquired data, the execution times of each of the modules, and the execution sequences. This solution is extensible to a wide range of computing solutions that must operate uninterruptedly.
