Determining associations between services and computing assets based on alias term identification

A computerized method for determining computing assets associated with a service, the method comprising:

• collecting, by a processor, metadata from one or more computing assets of a computing system;
• identifying, by the processor, one or more alias terms in the collected metadata of the one or more computing assets, wherein the one or more alias terms are associated with the service;
• based on the identified one or more alias terms, generating, by the processor, service association scores for the one or more computing assets based on a term-score mapping, wherein each service association score indicates a likelihood that a computing asset is used for a service;
• and
• identifying, by the processor, a subset of computing assets of the one or more computing assets, that includes computing assets with service association scores that exceed a service association threshold;
• determining computing assets associated with the service based on the subset of computing assets;
• receiving a request for computing assets associated with the service;
• and
• providing the subset of computing assets in response to the received request, wherein the subset of computing assets is provided as an ordered list, the ordered list including the subset of computing assets in order from a highest service association score to a lowest service association score.

One or more non-transitory computer storage media having computer-executable instructions for determining computing assets associated with a service that, upon execution by a processor, cause the processor to at least:

• collect metadata from one or more computing assets of a computing system;
• identify one or more alias terms in the collected metadata of the one or more computing assets, wherein the one or more alias terms are associated with the service;
• based on the identified one or more alias terms, generate service association scores for the one or more computing assets based on a term-score mapping, wherein each service association score indicates a likelihood that a computing asset is used for a service;
• and
• identify a subset of computing assets of the one or more computing assets, which includes computing assets with service association scores that exceed a service association threshold;
• determine computing assets associated with the service based on the subset of computing assets;
• receive a request for computing assets associated with the service;
• and
• provide the subset of computing assets in response to the received request, wherein the subset of computing assets is provided as an ordered list, the ordered list including the subset of computing assets in order from a highest service association score to a lowest service association score.
