HOSTED NETWORK MANAGEMENT

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate the evaluation of hosted computing devices in accordance with target patterns. A set of target patterns can be developed for elements common to a plurality of hosted computing networks. The set of target patterns can be defined utilizing a detailed pattern language to describe elements of a hosted computing device network and relationships between the elements. Thereafter, a hosted computing device network management component can utilize the set of target patterns to verify and validate a deployed hosted computing network or to process purposed modifications/configurations to a deployed hosted computing network.

主权项

1. A method for managing hosted computing networks, comprising:
obtaining, by a hosted network management component, a request for evaluation of an identified hosted computing network; identifying, by the hosted network management component, network topology information for the identified hosted computing network; selecting, by the hosted network management component, one or more patterns, wherein each of the one or more patterns defines an attribute or relationship of a component of a hosted computing network; determining, by hosted network management component, whether one or more patterns match the network topology information; and transmitting, by the hosted network management component, a notification whether the identified hosted computing network has been validated based on the determination of the whether the one or more patterns match the network topology information.
