  • Patent number: 9684539
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable mediums for logically remediating infrastructure resource components are disclosed. According to one example, the method includes interfacing an infrastructure component remediation (ICR) device to a plurality of infrastructure resource components located at a data facility area in order to assess a configuration state for each of the plurality of infrastructure resource components. The method further includes identifying, via the interfaced ICR device, a disparity existing between a converged infrastructure baseline configuration and the assessed configuration states associated with the infrastructure resource components, and remediating, via the interfaced ICR device, the plurality of infrastructure resource components to logically operate as a converged infrastructure that complies with the converged infrastructure baseline configuration.

  • Patent number: 9386042
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable mediums for utilizing geographical location information to manage applications in a computer network system are disclosed. According to one example, a method includes receiving, by a global positioning system (GPS) service entity, a request for geographical location information associated with an infrastructure enclosure device from a location request entity, wherein the location request entity is hosted by the infrastructure enclosure device. The method further includes acquiring, by the GPS service entity, the geographical location information from a location enablement device included in the infrastructure enclosure device and sending, by the GPS service module, the acquired geographical location information to the location request entity, wherein the location request entity enforces a policy based on the acquired geographical location information.
