Abstract: Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for creating a dynamically composed compute node. The method includes receiving an application characteristic and generating an infrastructure allocation request according to the application characteristic. The infrastructure allocation request then may be forwarded to a management system associated with a disaggregated infrastructure.

Abstract: A method includes displaying to a user, via a display element, a user interface that allows a user to characterize business demand of an organization; receiving, from a user, via one or more input devices, input characterizing business demand; automatically comparing, utilizing one or more processors and one or more memory elements of a computer system, qualities of business demand to attributes of ensembles comprising implementations of reusable patterns, the qualities of business demand being based at least in part on the received input characterizing business demand; determining, based on the comparing step, a recommended ensemble; and displaying to a user, via a display element, the recommended ensemble and other possible ensembles as well as a visualization comparing the recommended ensemble and the other possible ensembles to business demand.

Abstract: A method of dynamically generating a graphic includes receiving, at a vector graphics engine loaded on a server system, graphic template input; receiving, at the vector graphics engine loaded on the server system, data template input; and generating, at the server system, code in a standard format representative of a vector graphic. The generating includes identifying a special tag associated with the vector graphics engine, converting code associated with this tag from a first format associated with the vector graphics engine to a second standardized format, and binding data content based on the received data template input to graphic content based on the received graphic template input.

Abstract: A system for providing a customized library platform of informational elements, each pertaining to one or more of information technology disciplines, includes a database of informational elements, and first computer-implemented user interfaces usable to provide the customization and a second user interface usable to view the customized library platform. The IT disciplines span design, analysis, modeling and management across a wide spectrum of IT functions and includes levels of detail and viewpoints that accommodate multiple roles across IT, from very senior executives to low level engineers and programmers. The knowledge base allows organizations to model their knowledge relationships to fit their structures, processes and guidelines, by using a provided framework as a starting point. The intelligent knowledge base emphasizes specific practices that enhance the linkage of business to IT, which is a widely recognized gap across IT creating massive waste and inefficiency.

Abstract: A method for facilitating forensic analysis of operational data for an IT infrastructure includes deriving performance data from a plurality of physical systems, network elements and storage devices in an IT infrastructure via a toolset comprising a plurality of IT monitoring and metrics tools, importing the performance data into an integrated forensics platform, aggregating the imported data, and analyzing the aggregated data to determine resources consumed. Each tool is communicatively interfaced with one or more of the physical systems, network elements and storage devices.
