Semi-automatic discovery and generation of useful service blueprints

摘要

According to one general aspect, a method of semi-automatically discovering and generating useful service blueprints may include collecting, by an apparatus, a plurality of configuration information sets regarding a plurality of network service applications. The method may also include converting, by the apparatus, the plurality of configuration information sets into one or more normalized application instance graphs. The method may further include generating, by the apparatus, one or more application blueprint files based, at least in part, upon the one or more normalized application instance graphs.

1. A method comprising:
collecting, by an apparatus, a plurality of configuration information sets regarding a plurality of network service applications; converting, by the apparatus, the plurality of configuration information sets into a number of normalized application instance graphs; identifying, by the apparatus, at least one sub-graph that is sufficiently common, based on a pre-defined criteria, to the number of the normalized application instance graphs; and generating, by the apparatus, one or more application blueprint files based, at least in part, upon the number of normalized application instance graphs including the at least one identified sub-graph.
