Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein provide an approach for automated realization of hand-drawn topologies. In one embodiment, a topologizer application is configured to parse an image depicting a hand-drawn topology and identify shapes and relationships between the shapes in the image. The topologizer may convert the hand-drawn topology to polygons and then identify the polygons as being, e.g., particular shapes and arrows representing relationships between the shapes. The identified shapes and relationships are then output in a machine-readable format for consumption, in which the shapes are mapped to corresponding components of a computing system and deployed based on the mapping and the relationships indicated in the topologizer output.
