Abstract: An approach for providing guidance and management of a data processing system. A processor stores at least one design pattern corresponding to a plurality of components of the data processing system. A processor generates a behavioral model of the data processing system based, at least in part, on the stored at least one design pattern. A processor monitors actual behavior of the data processing system. A processor compares the actual behavior of the data processing system to the behavioral model of the data processing system. A processor recommends a solution, based, at least in part, on the comparison.

Abstract: The invention provides for a method for processing a plurality of data sets (105; 106; 108; 110-113; DB1; DB2) in a data repository (104) for storing at least unstructured data, the method comprising: —providing (302) a set of agents (150-168), each agent being operable to trigger the processing of one or more of the data sets, the execution of each of said agents being automatically triggered in case one or more conditions assigned to said agent are met, at least one of the conditions relating to the existence, structure, content and/or annotations of the data set whose processing can be triggered by said agent; —executing (304) a first one of the agents; —updating (306) the annotations (115) of the first data set by the first agent; and —executing (308) a second one of the agents, said execution being triggered by the updated annotations of the first data set meeting the conditions of the second agent, thereby triggering a further updating of the annotations of the first data set.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to building and maintaining an impact map for a plurality of business application components (BACs) operating in a computing environment. The impact map impact map identifies associations between the BACs operating in the computing environment and terms in the business glossary. The business glossary specifies terms used by the plurality of BACs. The impact map may be updated in response to changes in the computing environment, such as a BAC being added to the computing environment, a change in a stated use of a term by one of the BACs, and an update to a measure of importance of one of the terms to a BAC which uses that term, updating an impact map to reflect the indicated change.
