Abstract: Techniques are provided for identifying dependencies among multiple software entities. One exemplary method comprises scanning source code and/or configuration information of a given software entity to extract connection information for connections made by the given software entity with other software entities, wherein at least one connection made by the given software entity is an asynchronous connection that employs asynchronous messaging using an intermediate message broker; resolving at least one uniform resource identifier in the extracted connection information to obtain a corresponding network address; analyzing the source code associated with the asynchronous connection to determine whether the given software entity is a producer or a consumer associated with the asynchronous connection; and generating a dependency graph identifying a plurality of the other software entities that depend on the given software entity.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products are provided for the visualization of software execution. One method comprises: generating, using a static code analysis, a data flow diagram illustrating a plurality of possible code execution paths of software code; marking, using an execution profiler, a particular execution path through the data flow diagram for a specific execution scenario; and enriching one or more nodes in the data flow diagram marked with the particular execution path for the specific execution scenario with information extracted from one or more application logs. The marked data flow diagram may be enriched, for example, by extracting a particular portion of a log file and tagging a corresponding portion of the data flow diagram with the extracted particular portion of the log file. The extracted log information may comprise, for example, a timestamp, a log category, a software module name, a function name and/or contextual information.
