Task correlation framework

An apparatus comprising:

• a processing device operatively coupled to a memory and configured to:
• extract first task data from a first data source corresponding to a first application and second task data from a second data source corresponding to a second application;
• compare the first task data to the second task data using one or more natural language processing techniques;
• identify one or more matching tasks between the first task data and the second task data based at least in part on the comparing, wherein, in identifying the one or more matching tasks between the first task data and the second task data, the processing device is configured to compute a value corresponding to a difference between at least two sets of textual data respectively corresponding to the first task data and the second task data;
• analyze code of at least one of the first application and the second application to determine whether the code of at least one of the first application and the second application implements the one or more matching tasks;
• and
• filter at least one of the first and second task data based at least in part on one or more parameters, where the filtering is performed prior to the comparing of the first task data to the second task data.

An article of manufacture comprising a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having stored therein program code of one or more software programs, wherein the program code when executed by at least one processing device causes said at least one processing device to perform the steps of:

• extracting first task data from a first data source corresponding to a first application and second task data from a second data source corresponding to a second application;
• comparing the first task data to the second task data using one or more natural language processing techniques;
• identifying one or more matching tasks between the first task data and the second task data based at least in part on the comparing, wherein, in identifying the one or more matching tasks between the first task data and the second task data, the program code causes said at least one processing device to compute a value corresponding to a difference between at least two sets of textual data respectively corresponding to the first task data and the second task data;
• analyzing code of at least one of the first application and the second application to determine whether the code of at least one of the first application and the second application implements the one or more matching tasks;
• and
• filtering at least one of the first and second task data based at least in part on one or more parameters, where the filtering is performed prior to the comparing of the first task data to the second task data.
