The WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence(WSO2 OB BI) component enables monitoring and recording of API-level usage activity to ensure that the API owners have full awareness of the APIs, applications, and subscriptions. It generates alerts by analyzing the risk involved in transactions and fraudulent activities. It also generates statistics using the data collected from WSO2 Open Banking Key Manager and API Manager. WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence contains the following features: 

API Analytics

Provides reports, statistics and graphs on the APIs deployed in WSO2 Open Banking API Manager. Helps Third-party providers (TPP) to monitor how their applications perform while banks can analyze how the bank APIs perform.

Transaction Risk Analysis

Enables analyzing the risk level based on predefined rules and exempt the user from having to provide the second factor.

Fraud Detection

For transaction monitoring mechanisms to detect unauthorized or fraudulent transactions and generate alerts. It also exempts the security requirements of strong customer authentication based on the identified level of risk and recurrence of the payment transaction. 

Data Reporting

The WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence captures data published in WSO2 Open Banking API Manager and WSO2 Open Banking Key Manager. Data Reporting is the process of processing and summarizing these data. 

It also supports business Key Performance Indicator (KPI) dashboards with business intelligence and insights on usage trends as well as custom business insights on the account and payment flows. The decision makers of banks can use these statistics to align the business to better suit the customer needs and ultimately increase profits.  The configurable alerting module enables informing the necessary parties of abnormal behavior, e.g., API failures, a sudden increase in the response time of APIs, and a change in the API resource access pattern.

The placement of the WSO2 OB BI component is as follows:

Before you begin

Download Open Banking Business Intelligence and unzip the file, or add it through WUM using the following commands:

  1. Add the wso2-obbi WUM pack.

    wum add wso2-obbi-<version>
  2. Update the wso2-obbi product pack using WUM.

    wum update wso2-obbi-<version>

The WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence server uses the worker and dashboard profiles for the above-mentioned features. In a production deployment, the worker and dashboard profiles should run in two different JVMs. You need to enable the below ports, in order to publish data to these two nodes.

You can find the configurations for worker and dashboard profiles respectively in the following locations:

  • <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/conf/worker/deployment.yaml 
  • <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/conf/dashboard/deployment.yaml 

The worker node has a port offset of 1 and it opens the following ports.

HTTPS requests

9444, 8006, 8007
Thrift transport 7612, 7712

The dashboard node has a port offset of 6 and it opens the following port.

HTTPS requests

9449

  3. This is available only as a WUM update and is effective from January 08, 2021 (01-08-2021). For more information on updating WSO2 Open Banking, see Updating WSO2 Products.

    Copy the following widgets for your database type in the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/resources/finance/dashboard/widgets/<DATABASE_TYPE> directory and replace those widgets in the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/wso2/dashboard/deployment/web-ui-apps/portal/extensions/widgets directory:

    • AverageTransactionAmount
    • AverageTransactionAmountGraph
    • FraudGraph
    • TransactionGraph
    • TotalFraudulentTransactions
    • TotalPaymentTransactions
    • TransactionHistoryAnalyser
    • DateTimeRangePicker

You need to follow the steps below when you are using Oracle or MS SQL database servers.

  1. You need to include the database driver corresponding to the database for the WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence server to communicate with the database. The WSO2 Open Banking Business Intelligence is an OSGi-based product. Therefore, when you integrate third party products such as Oracle and MS SQL with WSO2 OB BI, you need to check whether the libraries you need to add are OSGi based. If they are not, you need to convert them to OSGi bundles before adding them to the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/lib directory. To convert the jar files to OSGi bundles, follow the steps below.
    1. Download the non-OSGi jar for the required third party product, and save it in a preferred directory in your machine.

    2. Go to the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/bin directory. Run the command given below to generate the converted file in the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/lib directory.

      ./jartobundle.sh <PATH_TO_NON-OSGi_JAR> ../lib
    3. In order to make sure that the schema name is based on your database structures, follow the below instructions:

      This is available only as a WUM update and is effective from January 08, 2021 (01-08-2021). For more information on updating WSO2 Open Banking, see Updating WSO2 Products.

      1. Go to the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/wso2/dashboard/deployment/web-ui-apps/portal/extensions/widgets directory and open the widgetConf.json file of each of the below dashboard widgets:
        1. AverageTransactionAmount
        2. AverageTransactionAmountGraph
        3. FraudGraph
        4. TransactionGraph
        5. TotalFraudulentTransactions
        6. TotalPaymentTransactions
        7. TransactionHistoryAnalyser
      2. Add the following configuration under "currency":"£" of  the metadata attribute:

        Make sure you map to the correct schema name of OPENBANK_OB_REPORTING_STATSDB.

        "schemaName": "<SCHEMA_NAME_FOR_OPENBANK_OB_REPORTING_STATSDB>"

        Once updated, it must look as follows:

        "metadata": {
                    "currency":"£"
        			"schemaName": "<SCHEMA_NAME_FOR_OPENBANK_OB_REPORTING_STATSDB>"
        }


Configuring WSO2 OB BI worker 

Update listenerConfigurations in the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/wso2/worker/conf/transports/netty-transports.yml as follows:

Note that keyStorePass: wso2carbon needs to be changed as keyStorePassword: wso2carbon.

listenerConfigurations:
 -
  id: "default"
  host: "0.0.0.0"
  port: 9090
  messageProcessorId: "MSF4J-CM-PROCESSOR"

 -
  id: "https"
  host: "0.0.0.0"
  port: 9443
  scheme: https
  keyStoreFile: ${carbon.home}/resources/security/wso2carbon.jks
  keyStorePassword: wso2carbon
  certPass: wso2carbon
  messageProcessorId: "MSF4J-CM-PROCESSOR"

Configuring keystores

In the SSL handshake between the Open Banking API Manager and Open Banking Business Intelligence servers, the client (i.e. Open Banking API Manager) needs to verify the certificate presented by the server (i.e. Open Banking Business Intelligence). For this purpose, the client stores the trusted certificate of the server in the client-truststore.jks keystore.

If you use a custom keystore in Open Banking API Manager and/or Open Banking Business Intelligence, import the public key certificate of Open Banking Business Intelligence into the client-truststore.jks file of the Open Banking API Manager. To export the public key from the server and import it into the client's trust store, follow the steps given in Adding CA-signed certificates to keystores in the Administration Guide.

Enabling data publishing in API Manager

Follow the instructions below to configure the WSO2 Open Banking API Manager to publish statistics. 

  1. Open the <WSO2_OB_APIM_HOME>/repository/conf/api-manager.xml file

  2. Configure the properties under the <Analytics> sub element.

    <Analytics>
            <!-- Enable Analytics for API Manager -->
            <Enabled>true</Enabled>
     
            <!-- Server URL of the remote StreamProcessor server used to collect statistics. Must
                be specified in protocol://hostname:port/ format.
     
                An event can also be published to multiple Receiver Groups each having 1 or more receivers. Receiver
                Groups are delimited by curly braces whereas receivers are delimited by commas.
                Ex - Multiple Receivers within a single group
                tcp://localhost:7612/,tcp://localhost:7613/,tcp://localhost:7614/
     
                Ex - Multiple Receiver Groups with two receivers each
                {tcp://localhost:7612/,tcp://localhost:7613},{tcp://localhost:7712/,tcp://localhost:7713/} -->
            <StreamProcessorServerURL>{tcp://<WSO2_OB_BI_HOST>:7612}</StreamProcessorServerURL>
    </Analytics>

    Enable alerts:

    If you are using Open Banking Business Intelligence for Analytics, follow the steps below to enable alerts:

    • Open the <WSO2_OB_BI_HOME>/conf/worker/deployment.yaml file.
    • Update the file as follows:
