Abstract: A method of modeling a prospective database migration between database systems may include collecting performance data associated with a plurality databases in a first database system. The method may also include receiving a selection of a set of databases in the plurality of databases to migrate to a second database system. The method may additionally include computing, using at least some of the performance data, combined performance data that estimates how the set of databases will perform on the second database system. The method may further include providing one or more indications as to whether the set of databases should be migrated to the second database system. In some embodiments, the one or more indications may be based on the combined performance data.

Abstract: A method of pre-allocating resources for database provisioning in a private cloud may include determining characteristics of a plurality of databases in a customer's database system. The method may also include grouping the characteristics of the plurality of databases to generate a plurality of database templates that are descriptive of the plurality of databases. The method may additionally include causing resources to be pre-allocated in the private cloud based on at least some of the plurality of database templates. The method may further include receiving a selection of a database template from the plurality of database templates as part of a provisioning request. The method may also include causing a database described at least in part by the database template to be provisioned in the private cloud.

Abstract: A method of migrating data from one or more source databases to one or more target databases may include generating a pre-migration analysis for a plurality of objects stored in the one or more source databases, and generating a plurality of migration scripts that transfer the plurality of objects from the one or more source databases to the one or more target databases. The method may also include generating a migration plan that defines an execution order for the plurality of migration scripts, and migrating the plurality of objects from the one or more source databases to one or more target databases according to the migration plan. The method may further include validating the plurality of objects on the one or more target databases.

Abstract: A system and a method of rating software bugs using a bug scoring and tracking system is presented. The system and method may use automated scoring of the bugs to determine the impact of the bug. The system and method may connect to one or more databases to determine the extent of the deployment of the software, the impact of the bug, and/or the history of the bug. Scoring is used to prioritize the bugs and the scoring is extensible and adjustable allowing easy addition of new parameters and allowing the system to be modified for different bug types, software, or customers.

Abstract: A method includes the steps of measuring a surface profile of a first component, determining a profile of a second component, the profile of the second component being configured to correspond to the surface profile of the first component, and manufacturing the second component utilizing additive technology in accordance with the determined profile.

Abstract: Administrative tasks and services associated with computer systems are simplified and streamlined with a platform architecture that supports remote administration, development, and deployment of services. A system is configured with a support cloud platform to allow automation of tasks and services and the reuse of components. The platform generates, stores, deploys, executes, and monitors services through their complete life cycle. Services may be designed, made available for deployment, deployed to a customer, executed and monitored using the platform.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for providing services related to managing computer systems. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide for providing performance tuning and benchmarking services to remote computer systems. Generally speaking, the service can provide functions to help customers maintain a consistent performance of their databases with minimal downtime by pro-actively addressing issues or bottlenecks with periodic assessments, monitoring of performance metrics that are causing stress throughout the term of the service, reporting violations of agreed upon thresholds for performance, and reactively helping customers address performance issues that arise with reactive tuning.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for providing services related to managing computer systems. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide for providing load testing services to remote computer systems. Generally speaking, such a service can allow a customer to capture and replay realistic workloads from production to test systems. The service can help the customer evaluate the impact of change on their system performance (e.g., upgrades, patches, application changes, schema changes, impact of adding more users, hardware changes, etc.) with a real-life workload captured from production and replayed on comparable test system restored to a captured “point in time.” More specifically, the load testing service can setup and capture workloads from production systems and re-execute them with high fidelity on test copies of production databases which have the changes implemented.
