Patent ID: 8463737

Claim:
An apparatus for converting and monitoring management information data in an integrated manner and in real time, the apparatus comprising at least one computer system including at least one processor, the at least one computer system comprising: a receiving module for collecting the management information data as a character string from at least one source management solution; a parsing module for receiving the management information data from the receiving module, dividing the management information data into specific units according to a prescribed parsing rule, inserting a specific field name into each divided unit in addition to the management information data of that divided unit so that the management information data is recognized by a destination integrated management solution, and outputting the resultant management information data; a filtering module for receiving each unit of management information data from the parsing module and removing the management information data when a specific field value of the management information data is a specific character string and the management information data is collected in a specific time range according to a prescribed filtering rule; a mapping module for receiving the management information data from the parsing module or the filtering module and modifying a value of a field of the management information data to map a field of the destination integrated management solution according to a prescribed mapping rule; a transmitting module for transmitting the management information data from at least one of the parsing, filtering or mapping modules to the destination integrated management solution; and a managing module for setting the parsing, filtering and mapping rules, and monitoring collection, conversion, and transmission of the management information data in real time using at least one or a combination of the parsing, filtering and mapping modules according to the management information data, and wherein the managing module resets the parsing, filtering and mapping rules when an integrated management policy is changed.
