  • Patent number: 11671505
    Abstract: One or more computers receive a request from a user to change a configuration of a computing environment provided by one or more servers. In response to receiving the request and before performing the requested change in the configuration of the environment, the computers determine an estimated measure of performance that represents a level of performance of the computing environment if changed according to the request and provide data indicating performance measures indicating the estimated measure of performance for the environment corresponding to the change in the configuration of the environment. After providing the data indicating the estimated performance measures, the computers receive data indicating user input confirming the request to change the configuration of the environment, and perform the requested change in the configuration of the computing environment.

  • Patent number: 11507295
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for backup, restoration, and migration of computer systems. In some implementations, data from a first server environment is obtained. A data package is generated that includes configuration data, data objects, and/or metadata from the first server environment organized in a predetermined arrangement. Data indicating (i) a destination on which to deploy the archived data from the first server environment and (ii) one or more characteristics of the destination is received. Mapping data that specifies a mapping of elements in the predetermined arrangement to elements of server environments having the one or more characteristics is accessed. Server environment data derived from the data package is deployed, the server environment data being deployed to the destination and arranged at the destination in a manner specified by the mapping data.

In response to receiving the request and before performing the requested change in the configuration of the environment, the computers determine an estimated measure of performance that represents a level of performance of the computing environment if changed according to the request and provide data indicating performance measures indicating the estimated measure of performance for the environment corresponding to the change in the configuration of the environment. After providing the data indicating the estimated performance measures, the computers receive data indicating user input confirming the request to change the configuration of the environment, and perform the requested change in the configuration of the computing environment.
