In the Spotlight March 2012


In TKU March 2012 Apache WebServers pattern has been updated to support website Software Components modeling. This option is configurable. When enabled the Software Instance has the following view:

In order to model Software Components for websites the pattern reads Apache configuration file (httpd.conf) and extracts the following website attributes from it:

  • website' name
  • website' aliases
  • website' IP addreses
  • website' listening ports
  • listening TCP sockets

The following example shows website's Software Component, which holds all those attributes within:
