Each SmartSpace installation comprises a few dozen separate services that map onto executable programs on a single machine or a set of communicating machines. This provides scalable real-time performance. Service management provides centralized control for the set of services in a system. It supports service installation and upgrade, assignment of services to machines, and service backup. Service management provides a status screen running on the Windows operating system showing real-time status of all services along with support for installing, upgrading and removing services.
