- Domain and instance services
  Before you can perform Teracloud® Streams tasks, Teracloud Streams domain and instance services need to be running on resources in the domain. Domain services are started by starting the domain and instance services are started by starting the instance.
- Jobs
  You can start and administer jobs by using Streams Console or the streamtool command-line interface.
- Recovery
  You can back up your Teracloud® Streams system files and directories and then restore them later if necessary. In general, you can recover from application and runtime failures without restoring Teracloud Streams from a backup.
- Streams Console
  You can use the Streams Console to monitor and manage the Teracloud® Streams instances and applications in your domain from any computer that has HTTP connectivity to the server that is running the web management service.

Managing and monitoring Teracloud® Streams using management APIs

Teracloud® Streams provides two API sets to manage and monitor Streams services and jobs.

REST

The REST APIs provide programmatic access to configuration and status information for Teracloud® Streams objects, such as domains, instances, resources, services, and jobs. They also provide management capabilities for these objects. You can use the REST APIs from any application that can establish an HTTPS connection to the server that is running the REST management API service.

JMX

The Java™ Management Extensions (JMX) APIs provide programmatic access to configuration and status information for Teracloud® Streams objects, such as a domain and its instances, jobs, and resources. You can manage and monitor these objects by using a set of JMX beans. A JMX bean provides attributes, operations, and notifications for working with the managed object. You can use the JMX APIs from any application that can establish an SSL/TCP connection to the server that is running the JMX management API service.
