Luka is an exception handling and reporting framework. It's useful to
|
|
look at it as an event handling framework.
|
|
|
|
It comes from operational understanding of networks.
|
|
|
|
Scenario that Luka is addressing is following: on a network with
|
|
multiple hosts running multiple applications, it is very difficult to
|
|
track operational status of all the functionality that those
|
|
applications and hosts are meant to deliver. In order to make it
|
|
easier, we decided to specify the error handling and reporting data
|
|
model that each component delivering functionality has to conform to.
|
|
What is a component? In most cases, it is a script, often run from
|
|
cronjob, in some cases it is a class in an application. In all cases,
|
|
a component has to successfully complete a task on which functionality
|
|
of an application, or entire network, relies on.
|
|
|
|
It is common practice that programmers choose their way of handling
|
|
errors and reporting. Luka is an attempt to standardize that process.
|
|
Its primary goal is to make it easier for smaller number of people to
|
|
keep larger number of applications and networks running.
