Automatická koordinace a řízení procesů na platformě Java

The subject of this thesis is the topic of the resilience and stability of web applications with a focus on the Java platform. Many existing information systems based not only upon this platform face problems that disturb the stability of applications. These problems may result in the failure, downtime and, consequently, financial or business loss due to the malfunction of the whole service. The aim is to show the problems that the applications face in a production environment and to show how to address them proactively. A possible partial solution to increase the stability may be an appropriate configuration of JVM (Java Virtual Machine), an analysis and corrections of detected errors, or a technique called Sandboxing to increase the stability, which this thesis deals with. Using this technique, it is possible to divide the application into separate parts that cannot influence each other. This prevents the propagation of errors among the parts of the application and thereby increases the stability of the entire application. The target applications include the Java applications made with the help of Spring framework. The Sanboxing technique can be implemented into the applications built this way by means of suitable configuration, which ensures that the application run will be divided into specified parts that will be automatically tested and possibly restarted. The application then recovers itself in the affected areas without a complete failure. The project is called Java Capsules.
