Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for identifying the interoperability status between discrete components within a converged infrastructure system. One or more analyses of multiple datasets related to components or objects within the system are implemented, using the relationships that have been defined for the components, with the goal of determining the interoperability status of those components. The interoperability evaluation system comprises a request controller and an interoperability service module. The request controller receives a request of interoperability analysis from a user interface for a specified system configuration. The interoperability service module implements an interoperability analysis, with interactions with an element database and a customer profile database via an element DB API and an inventory common API respectively. Upon completion of the analysis, interop evaluation result is sent back to the user interface.

Abstract: Selecting resources for a cloud service can include defining a specific resource provider constraint parameter, determining a parameter value for the specific resource provider constraint parameter, analyzing a plurality of specific resource providers and selecting a specific resource provider from the plurality of available specific resource providers based on the analysis and using a best-fit model.
