ATG search and Monitoring the request and response

To get an idea of the SearchEngineActivity logs, please read the blog : http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2012/01/atg-search-and-search-engine-activity.html

Other than using the SearchEngineActivity logs, we could monitor the search engine request/reponse  by enabling the monitoring in the SearchEngineService component @ /dyn/admin/nucleus/atg/search/routing/SearchEngineService.


Once you enable this "monitoringEnabled", each request/response and the response time like last response time and average response time can be found @ SearchEngineService component. After you send a request to the search engine, just refresh the SearchEngineService component and you could see that the total command count will be incremented by one and the response time also get updated.


If you click this total command count, a new window will be opened with the request and response details.

ATG - basic concepts of ATG

This blog is for the ATG beginners to get some basic overview about ATG. I just given the ATG concepts as a list of numbered points for the ease of understanding. 1. At the framework level, ATG is a               java based application platform for hosting web-based applications, as well as RMI accessible business components,               with an ORM layer,               a component container,               an MVC framework,               and a set of tag libraries for JSP. 2. Art Technology Group(ATG)'s Dynamo Application Server (DAS) is a Java EE compliant application server. DAS is no longer actively developed as ATG recommends using other Java EE applications servers for its products such as BEA WebLogic, JBoss or IBM WebSphere. 3. Prior to ATG 2007, JHTML was used instead of JSP for view purpose. J...

Basic design decisions for a commerce search setup ( with an ATG Search view)

In this blog I would like to explain the basic set of configuration/design decisions needed to setup an ATG search project. Most of these design decisions are common for all Enterprise search applications. 1. Decide the searchable properties :   This means the properties that the business want the user to search in the ecommerce platform. In ATG search these are configured as the text properties in the product-catalog-output-config.xml ( the definitionFile of the \atg\commerce\search\ProductCatalogOutputConfig). Usually the displayName of product/sku, displayName of department/category/sub-category, skuId, brandName are the properties configured as searchable. 2. Decide the search refinement properties or the faceted properties :   After a user search for a keyword, search refinement is the next step done to filter his results. ATG supports the search refinement using the Faceted Search concept. Read more about facted search @...

ATG - how to prevent Cross-Site attacks using _dynSessConf parameter

Cross-site scripting attacks take advantage of a vulnerability that enables a malicious site to use your browser to submit form requests to another site. In order to protect forms from cross-site attacks in ATG, you can enable form submissions to automatically supply the request parameter _dynSessConf , which identifies the current session through a randomly generated long number. On submission of a form (using dsp:form tag) or activation of a property setting (using dsp:a tag), the request-handling pipeline ( DAFDropletEventServlet ) validates _dynSessConf  against its session confirmation identifier. If it detects a mismatch or missing number, it can block form processing and return an error. To disable this functionality, we could give the following properties (@ /atg/dynamo/Configuration to disable it globally) enforceSessionConfirmation  = false -->  specifies whether the request-handling pipeline requires session confirmation in order to proc...
