SERVICE CONTROLLER FOR AN INTEGRATED SERVICE FRAMEWORK

Embodiments of the invention provide for methods, systems and computer program products for an integrated service framework with a suite of products that provide a development environment and common framework for programming within an operating system. The integrated service framework provides a service controller that allows a programmer or an administrator to control, monitor, query, troubleshoot, and resolve any issues that occur with the services. The service controller provides service interfaces that are completely configurable without the need for programing code to display the individual service interfaces. The service controller provides the service interfaces using the text from a configuration file populated by a user. The user can utilize the service interfaces provided by the service controller to send commands to services to start, stop, pause, and resume the services, monitor information about the services, and query the services to determine if the services are working properly.
