Abstract: A computer implemented method and related system determine a current load result of a software container executing on a compute node in a container system. In response to determining that the current load result exceeds a predetermined scale-up threshold for the software container, the method adds a first plurality of replicas of the software container to the compute node, where a quantity of the first plurality of replicas is related to the current load result. In response to determining that the current load result is less than a predetermined scale-down threshold for the software container, the method deletes a second plurality of replicas of the software container from the compute node, where a quantity of the second plurality of replicas is related to the current load result.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for scanning a computing system to determine a computing system profile and problems to recommend actions to initiate with the computing system. A package is transmitted to the computing system including package code to scan the computing system to determine a computing system profile comprising a computing architecture and installed applications at the computing system. The computing system profile is processed to determine a recommended action to perform with respect to the computing system to improve operations of the computing system based on the computing system profile. A display element is generated in a user interface with information on the recommended action to enable a user of the computing system to implement the recommended action. The package code executes within the computing system without communicating over the network to an external system outside of a computing environment of the computing system.

Abstract: An image for a containerized application is created. From the image, one or more main processes of the containerized application are identified. The one or more main processes comprise a first subset of a plurality of processes of the containerized application. Within a sandbox environment, the containerized application is started. Based on the started application within the sandbox environment, a second subset of processes within the plurality is determined. The second subset includes one or more dependent processes associated with the first subset. A third subset of processes within the plurality is determined. The third subset excludes the first and second subsets and is associated with a vulnerability list. According to the third subset, a mitigated image for the containerized application is generated.

Abstract: A first computer system is scanned at configured, default time intervals by a software asset management (“SAM”) software application installed on the first computer system, wherein the scanning detects other software applications installed on the first computer system. The SAM software application generates a list of the other software applications installed on the first computer system and stores the list on a computer readable storage medium. An override software module triggers the SAM software application to perform an early scan of the first computer system, before a scan of the first computer system that the SAM software application would otherwise perform at a next default scan time. The triggering is in response to information obtained from a source external to the first computer system about a triggering one of the software applications on the list.
