Abstract

A computational instance of a remote network management platform may execute a remote access call for a license consolidation server. The remote access call may contain instructions for obtaining concurrent license usage statistics from the license consolidation server. In response to obtaining the concurrent license usage statistics, the computational instance may update a software configuration with the concurrent license usage statistics, where the software configuration contains a license rights allocation for the concurrent software application. Based on the concurrent license usage statistics and the license rights allocations, the computational instance may generate a representation of a graphical user interface that contains an overview pane indicating a utilization of the concurrent software application. Then the computational instance may transmit, to a client device, the representation of the graphical user interface.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system, comprising:

one or more hardware processors;
and
a non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform actions comprising:
obtaining concurrent license usage statistics for a software application from a license consolidation server by remotely accessing the license consolidation server;
in response to obtaining the concurrent license usage statistics, updating a software configuration based on the concurrent license usage statistics, wherein the software configuration comprises a license rights allocation for the software application;
and
based on the concurrent license usage statistics and the license rights allocation, generating a representation of a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes an indication of a utilization of the software application.

4 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer readable instructions, that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

obtaining concurrent license usage statistics for a software application from a license consolidation server by remotely accessing the license consolidation server;
in response to obtaining the concurrent license usage statistics, updating a software configuration based on the concurrent license usage statistics, wherein the software configuration comprises a license rights allocation for the software application;
and
based on the concurrent license usage statistics and the license rights allocation, generating a representation of a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes an indication of a utilization of the software application.
