Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to evaluating a state of a computer-executable application. User interface control information for opened graphical user interface windows of the computer-executable application can be captured during execution of the computer-executable application and used to generate a user interface fingerprint identifier. Additionally, an event log of the computer-executable application can be captured during the execution of the computer-executable application and used to generate an event fingerprint identifier. A global fingerprint identifier that maps to the state of the computer-executable application can be determined based on the user interface fingerprint identifier and the event fingerprint identifier. A query (including the global fingerprint identifier) for execution by a capture store computing system can be generated.

Abstract: Various embodiments for managing data by a processor in a multi-tiered computing storage environment. Input/Output (I/O) statistics are examined from each of cache and device drivers in the computing storage environment. Based on the I/O statistics, a ranking mechanism is applied to differentiate data between at least a cache rank and a Solid State Drive (SSD) rank. The ranking mechanism migrates data between the cache rank and SSD rank such that storage space in the cache rank is reserved for those of the plurality of data workload types having a greater adverse effect on a storage performance characteristic if stored in the SSD rank than if those workload types were stored in the cache rank.
