Therefore any system that would require access to such data should be adapted to the local environment. SIAM is intended as a common API that would connect to enterprise-specific service inventory systems and present the inventory data in a uniform format. The purpose of this universal API is to reduce the integration costs for such software systems as network monitoring, CRM, Customer self-service portals, etc. We assume that monitoring systems (such as: Torrus, ...) and front-end systems (such as: Customer portal, Extopus, ...) would connect to SIAM to retrieve any service-specific information, and SIAM would deliver a complete set of data required for those client applications. SIAM does not include any database of its own: all data is retrieved directly from the enterprise systems and databases. The SIAM library communicates with the enterprise-specific I and presents the data in an abstracted way. SIAM takes its configuration data from a single hierarchical data structure. This data is usually read from a YAML file. The configuration describes all data connections, driver configuration, enterprise-specific modules, etc. The SIAM core modules are distributed as an open-source Perl package available at CPAN. Enterprise-specific modules are integrated in a way that the core can be upgraded without breaking any local setup. =head1 METHODS =head2 new Expects a hashref with SIAM configuration. Normally the calling application would load the driver configuration from some data file (YAML or JSON), and optionally supply its own logger object. The following entries are supported in the configuration: =over 4 =item * Driver Mandatory hash with two entries: C identifying the driver module class which is going to be C'd; and C, a hash which is supplied to the driver's C method. =item * Logger Optional object reference that is to be used for all logging inside SIAM and in the driver. The default logger is an instance of C with STDERR output of warnings and errors. The logger object must implement the following methods: B, B, B, and B. =item * Client Optional hash that defines some configuration information for SIAM clients. The keys define categories, and values point to configuration hashes within each category. =back =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $config = shift; if( defined($config->{'Logger'}) ) { SIAM::Object->set_log_manager($config->{'Logger'}); } my $drvclass = $config->{'Driver'}{'Class'}; if( not defined($drvclass) ) { SIAM::Object->error ('Missing Driver->Class in SIAM configuration'); return undef; } my $drvopts = $config->{'Driver'}{'Options'}; if( not defined($drvopts) ) { SIAM::Object->error ('Missing Driver->Options in SIAM configuration'); return undef; } eval('require ' . $drvclass); if( $@ ) { SIAM::Object->error($@); return undef; } my $logger = SIAM::Object->get_log_manager(); $drvopts->{'Logger'} = $logger; my $driver = eval($drvclass .
