Abstract
A method and system for solution integration labeling. Specifically, the method and system disclosed herein enable the dynamic generation of recommended integration options for solution infrastructures based on component system and host network configurations. These recommended integration options may be presented visually, alongside compliant or non-compliant indicators, to validate the deployment of, and interconnectivities between, solution infrastructure components.
Claims20
A method for visualizing recommended solution integrations, comprising:
- scanning a first solution node, to obtain first solution node information (SNI);
- making a first determination, based on the first SNI, that the first solution node does not belong to a solution node group;
- extracting, based on the first determination, first integration pertinent information (IPI) from the first SNI;
- generating a first inventory hash using a first hashing function and the first IPI;
- obtaining a first user-desired host network configuration;
- generating a first solution hash using a second hashing function, the first inventory hash, and the first user-desired host network configuration;
- and
- visualizing a first recommended solution integration based on the first solution hash.
A system, comprising:
- a solution node;
- a portable scanning device (PSD) operatively connected to the solution node, and comprising a computer processor;
- and
- a solution integration labeler (SIL) executing on the computer processor, and programmed to:
- scan the solution node, to obtain solution node information (SNI);
- make a determination, based on the SNI, that the solution node does not belong to a solution node group;
- extract, based on the determination, integration pertinent information (IPI) from the SNI;
- generate an inventory hash using a first hashing function and the IPI;
- obtain a user-desired host network configuration;
- generate a solution hash using a second hashing function, the inventory hash, and the user-desired host network configuration;
- and
- visualize a recommended solution integration based on the solution hash.
A non-transitory computer readable medium (CRM) comprising computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer processor, enables the computer processor to:
- scan a first solution node, to obtain first solution node information (SNI);
- make a first determination, based on the first SNI, that the first solution node does not belong to a solution node group;
- extract, based on the first determination, first integration pertinent information (IPI) from the first SNI;
- generate a first inventory hash using a first hashing function and the first IPI;
- obtain a first user-desired host network configuration;
- generate a first solution hash using a second hashing function, the first inventory hash, and the first user-desired host network configuration;
- and
- visualize a first recommended solution integration based on the first solution hash.
