Automated Market Maker in Monitoring Services Marketplace

摘要

An application services marketplace may match various solution providers to a solution request, then creating a bid or proposal for services. Upon acceptance of the bid, the services may be configured and deployed. A market maker may combine multiple solution providers to address a specific request, and may use a schema expressly defined or implied in a request to select and configure a combination of services. The market maker may combine monitoring services with analysis services, monitoring services with load generators, or other combination of services that may be used during development or deployment of an application.
