Modeling computer network topology based on dynamic usage relationships

摘要

A method for modeling dependencies in a computing system including a plurality of resources, the method includes generating usage data based on data communications in a computing environment between a first resource and a second resource; determining resource relationship data for the first resource and the second resource including the usage data; and computing a measure of bonding between the first resource and the second resource based, at least in part, on recency of the data communications.
