Abstract: The present embodiments relate generally to the enforcement of guidelines, standards, and best practices for software applications. According to certain aspects, a method of retrieving, by a self-management engine from a data storage device, health data indicative of a utilization of a collection of data by one or more computing devices is disclosed, including detecting, by the self-management engine, a pattern in the utilization of the collection of data based on the health data; automatically determining, by the self-management engine, a correction to be applied to the collection of data based on the detected pattern and based on one or more rules corresponding to the detected pattern; and causing, by the self-management engine, the correction to be applied to the collection of data.

Abstract: A method for regulating a plurality of collections of data includes, for each of a plurality of collections of data, analyzing the collection of data to identify one or more deviations from a standard, guideline, or best practice governing the plurality of collections of data. The method further includes determining a characteristic of the one or more deviations and, based on the characteristic, determining an action to be executed in response to the one or more deviations.

Abstract: A method for regulating a plurality of collections of data includes analyzing collections of data to identify one or more deviations from a standard, guideline, or best practice governing the plurality of collections of data. The method further includes determining characteristics of the one or more deviations. Based on the characteristics, an action to be taken in response to the one or more deviations is determined and completed. Further, a record of the executed action is stored on a computer-readable medium.
