Architecture mapping of applications

A computing system, comprising:

• a first computing platform comprising:
• at least one first processor;
• a first communication interface communicatively coupled to the at least one first processor;
• and
• a first memory communicatively coupled with the at least one first processor;
• and
• a second computing platform comprising:
• at least one second processor;
• a second communication interface communicatively coupled to the at least one second processor;
• and
• a second memory communicatively coupled with the at least one second processor;
• wherein the first memory stores computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one first processor, cause the first computing platform to:
• input a series of request data sets into an executable application hosted by the second computing platform;
• extract one or more indications of an architectural component from metadata, associated with one or more responses received from the executable application, and associated with a corresponding request data set of the series of request data sets, the one or more indications of an architectural component associated with processing by the executable application of the corresponding request data set of the series of request data sets;
• and
• determine, based on the one or more indications of an architectural component, an architecture of the executable application;
• and
• wherein the second memory stores computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one second processor, cause the first computing platform to:
• execute the executable application.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause performance of:

• executing an executable application;
• inputting a series of request data sets into the executable application;
• extracting one or more indications of an architectural component from metadata associated with one or more responses received from the executable application and associated with a corresponding request data set of the series of request data sets, the one or more indications of an architectural component associated with processing by the executable application of the corresponding request data set of the series of request data sets;
• and
• determining, based on the one or more indications of an architectural component and corresponding request data sets, an architecture of the executable application.

A method comprising:

• executing an executable application;
• executing a software probe that interfaces with an application interface of the executable application to:
• input a series of request data sets into the executable application, and
• receive one or more responses, from the executable application, corresponding to a respective one or more of the series of request data sets;
• extracting one or more indications of an architectural component from metadata associated with the one or more responses received from the executable application, the one or more indications of an architectural component associated with processing by the executable application of the corresponding request data set of the series of request data sets;
• and
• determining, based on the one or more indications of an architectural component and corresponding request data sets, an architecture of the executable application.
