  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO CONVERT INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE TO A SOFTWARE-DEFINED SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240220282
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a method of cloud infrastructure optimization. The method identifies an existing infrastructure configuration deployed in a cloud environment and generates a plurality of proposal configurations, each of the plurality of proposal configurations having executable code configured to adjust the existing infrastructure configuration for at least one variable. The method selects a proposal configuration from the plurality of proposal configurations based on the at least one variable adjusted for in the existing infrastructure configuration, and the selected proposal configuration is deployed in the cloud environment. The method then analyzes the selected proposal configuration for a level of adjustment for the at least one variable. The method trains a model engine with existing and new training data.
