Abstract: Credentials management and usage in application modernization can be implemented as computer-readable methods, media and systems. A notification identifying an application modernization operation is received. The operation is to be performed on an application deployed by multiple resources arranged in multiple hierarchical levels. A resource residing at a hierarchical level of the multiple hierarchical levels is identified. The application modernization operation is to be performed on the identified resource which has a resource type. A search for a credential is performed. The credential grants access to the resource to enable performing the application modernization operation. In response to the searching, a credential included in the multiple credentials is identified. The identified credential grants access either to the resource or to resources of the resource type. In response to receiving the notification, the identified credential is provided.

Abstract: An example method of determining application topology in a virtualized computing system having a cluster of hosts with hypervisors supporting virtual machines (VMs), the method including: executing agents on the VMs to obtain process metadata describing processes executing in the VMs; receiving, at an application analysis system, the process metadata; receiving network flow metadata from the agents on the VMs and/or from a network analyzer in the virtualized computing system; parsing the network flow metadata to identify a source VM and a destination VM of the VMs; relating the network flow metadata to portions of the process metadata associated with the source and the destination VMs to identify a source process and a destination process; and generating a topology of a source component connected to a destination component, the source component identifying the source VM and the source process, the destination component identifying the destination VM and the destination process.

Abstract: An example method includes: executing, by application analysis software executing in the virtualized computing system, process discovery agents on the VMs; receiving, at the application analysis software from the process discovery agents, process metadata describing processes executing on the VMs; generating signatures for the processes based on the process metadata; determining components of an application based on the signatures; determining components of an application based on the signatures; identifying, for a first component of the components, a component-specific metadata collector; executing, by the application analysis software, the component-specific metadata collector on a first VM of the VMs; and receiving, at the application analysis software from the component-specific metadata collector, custom metadata further describing a first process of the processes associated with the first component.

Abstract: Aspects directed towards deploying a software-defined data center (SDDC) are disclosed. In one example, an SDDC software package is received at a public cloud computing environment in which the SDDC software package facilitates creating an SDDC on a plurality of host computers. A first test of the SDDC is then performed via a first testing server and a second test is performed via a second testing server. For this example, the first test is a generic test of the SDCC corresponding to a generic deployment of the SDDC software package on the plurality of host computers, whereas the second test is a custom test of the SDCC corresponding to a custom deployment of the SDCC software package. A usability of the SDCC is then validated based on at least one of the first test or the second test.
