Abstract

The OSIMIS (OSI Management Information Service) platform provides the foundation for the quick, efficient and easy construction of complex management systems. It is an object-oriented development environment in C++ [Strou] based on the OSI Management Model [X701] that hides the underlying protocol complexity (CMIS/P) and harnesses the power and expressiveness of the associated information model [X722] through simple to use Application Program Interfaces (APIs). OSIMIS combines the thoroughness of the OSI models and protocols with advanced distributed systems concepts pioneered by ODP to provide a highly dynamic distributed information store. It also combines seamlessly the OSI management power with the large installed base of Internet SNMP [SNMP] capable network elements. OSIMIS supports particularly well a hierarchical management organisation through hybrid manager-agent applications and may embrace a number of diverse technologies through proxy systems. This paper explains the OSIMIS components, architecture, philosophy and direction.
