Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology can include systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to receive milestones to define objects and attributes associated with the objects. The objects and the attributes can define an architecture of a system. A first table associated with a first milestone can be provided. The first table can be configured to receive a first set of objects associated with the first milestone. The first set of objects and a corresponding set of attributes for the first set of objects can be received. An indication to advance to a second milestone that follows the first milestone can be received. A second table associated with the second milestone can be provided. The second table can be configured to receive a second set of objects associated with the second milestone.

Abstract: The present invention provides for precomputing patch solutions for potential user issues. The precomputed patch solutions can include minimum patch solutions and best-like-me patch solutions. Each patch solution can include a patch and a sufficient set of one or more dependencies of that patch.

Abstract: The present invention provides patch solutions for computer programs. A vendor system determines whether information regarding patches previously installed on the system is available. If the information is not available, the system delivers a completely pre-computed solution to the user computer system including a main patch set and its dependencies. If the information is available, the vendor system delivers a partially pre-computed solution including a main patch set and its dependencies except for any of said patches that have successors already installed on said system.

Abstract: The present invention provides a computer system with a chronology generator for generating a chronology for a series of computer configurations.

Abstract: A system comprising a first subsystem adapted to provide a service by executing a first code stored on the first subsystem. The system further comprises a second subsystem, communicably coupled to the first subsystem, on which a second code associated with the first code is stored. The second subsystem produces modified code by applying status files associated with the first code to the second code. The second subsystem provides the service in lieu of the first subsystem by executing the modified code.
