Abstract: A computer system includes a processor, a memory, a data collector, a relationships analyzer, and a topological map generator. The data collector retrieves performance data in a specific set of performance categories for computing resources in a computing system for a time interval. The relationships analyzer, for each computing resource-to-computing resource pair in the computing system, performs a correlation analysis of the respective behavior values of the computing resources in the pair, and identifies the computing resource-to-computing resource pairs that have correlation values exceeding a pre-determined threshold level as having performance interdependencies. The topological map generator prepares an undirected graph of the computing resources that have performance interdependencies, and displays the undirected graph as a topographic map of the computing resources in the computing system.

Abstract: A computer system for classifying one or more servers by server type in a networked computing system to institute server-type based monitoring and or maintenance of the networked computing system. The computer system includes a processor, a memory, a data receiver, a server signature generator, and a server-type tagging service. The data receiver collects server performance data for a first server over a time interval. The server signature generator determines a signature of the first server based on the collected server performance data. The server-type tagging service compares the signature of the first server to a signature of a second server of known server type, determines a similarity of the signature of the first server to the signature of the second server, and, based on the similarity, classifies the first server as being of the same server type as the second server.
