DATA ANALYTICS AND MANAGEMENT OF COMPUTING INFRASTRUCTURES

摘要

Methods, systems, and techniques for analyzing and managing time series workload data are provided. Example embodiments provide a Data Management and Analysis platform that enables end users to modernize their system configurations to incorporate external services techniques, such as cloud technologies, and to utilize virtualization technologies to host some of their functions in a manner that improves the overall performance of their configurations. This may be particularly useful in an IT environment with many interdependent systems where it is hard to analyze and determine where externally hosted or hybrid (e.g., both remote and local) systems might improve the overall delivery of services and cost to end users.

1. A method for automatically analyzing performance of a computing system configuration comprising:
installing a plurality of sensors into the computing system configuration having a plurality of computing nodes, wherein each sensor is one of a native sensor that receives data directly from an operating system of a computing node of the computing system configuration, a multiplexing sensor that is a pluggable service configured to discover and collect configuration information from multiple computing nodes in the computing system configuration using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) of environments located behind a firewall, or a cloud sensor that collects performance information from APIs available from a cloud-based service, wherein the one or more sensors are hardware, software, or a combination or both; and under control of a computing system,
receiving data from the plurality of installed sensors;automatically aggregating the received data and performing statistical analytics on the aggregated data regarding one or more of resource requirements, interdependencies, and efficacy of the computing nodes of the computing system environment; andforwarding the results of the statistical analytics as recommendations for configuration changes.
