AUTOMATICALLY DISCOVERING TOPOLOGY OF AN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) INFRASTRUCTURE
摘要
Provided is a method of automatically discovering topology of an information technology (IT) infrastructure. Topology relationships amongst configuration items (CI) present in a semi-structured data generated by an information technology component of the IT infrastructure are determined. Topology relationships amongst configuration items (CI) present in a structured data generated by the information technology component of the IT infrastructure are determined. The topology relationships amongst the configuration items (CI) present in the semi-structured data are reconciled with the topology relationships amongst the configuration items (CI) present in the structured data.
