Abstract: A system and method for automatically creating performance models of complex information technology (IT) systems. System components and elements are subject to periodic monitoring associated with performance thresholds. A continuity analysis is performed by synchronizing testing functions associated with the predetermined system performance thresholds. Resulting data is accumulated and data mined for component and functional relations within the IT system. Models of the system may then be adapted with results generated from the analysis.
