1. A method for business activity monitoring comprising:
- creating a management object;
attaching the management object to an operational component without modifying software for the operational component, wherein the operational component is configured to provide a business-related service via a software function included in the operational component, the software function having a defined parameter;
monitoring and aggregating data associated with the operational component, wherein the monitoring and aggregating includes;
monitoring each of a plurality of calls to the software function, wherein each of the plurality of calls passes a value to the software function for the defined parameter; and
aggregating each value passed to the software function into a single data field of the management object;
performing real-time analysis of the values aggregated into the single data field of the management object; and
providing real-time visibility to the values aggregated into the single data field of the management object.

8. A system for business activity monitoring instrumentation, the system comprising:
-
a client providing a graphical user interface accessible to a user for accessing an operational component configured to provide a business-related service via a software function included in the operational component, the software function having a defined parameter, the graphical user interface further receiving user commands for generating a management object for the operational component; and one or more servers coupled to the client, the one or more servers configured to generate the management object in response to the user commands without modifying software for the operational component, the one or more servers being further configured to monitor and aggregate data associated with the operational component, perform real-time analysis of the aggregated data via the management object, and provide real-time visibility to the aggregated data via the management object, wherein the monitoring and the aggregating includes; monitoring each of a plurality of calls to the software function, wherein each of the plurality of calls passes a value to the software function for the defined parameter; and aggregating each value passed to the software function into a single data field of the management object. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

24. A computer-implemented method for business activity monitoring comprising:
-
accessing by a client device a computer-implemented business operation component including a software function having a defined parameter, the business operation component configured to provide a business-related service; generating by a server coupled to the client device, a management object via a graphical user interface for monitoring the business activity associated with the business operation component, wherein the generating includes; identifying the business operation component via the graphical user interface; identifying the software function included in the business operation component, via the graphical user interface; identifying a data field of the management object via the graphical user interface; and mapping the parameter defined for the software function, to the data field of the management object; monitoring each of a plurality of calls to the software function, wherein each of the plurality of calls passes a value to the software function for the defined parameter; aggregating, based on the monitoring, each value passed to the software function into the mapped data field of the management object; and accessing the data field of the management object and displaying, in real-time, the values aggregated into the mapped data fields. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
