Abstract
There is provided a method for gathering traffic analytics data about a communication network that includes applying a heuristic that focuses on specific attributes of the communications relationships between the system assets of a network.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- under control of a computing system comprising one or more computing devices configured with specific computer-executable instructions:
- monitoring communications among a first set of system assets of a first networked environment, wherein the first set of system assets is associated with a first computing service;
- determining a transit relationship comprising an originating system asset and a target system asset, wherein the first set of system assets includes the originating system asset and the target system asset;
- generating traffic analytic data based at least partly on transit relationships of the monitored communications, wherein the traffic analytic data comprises information about a volume of communications among the first set of system assets;
- and
- analyzing the traffic analytic data to generate a migration consideration set comprising a plurality of cloud service providers capable of performing the first computing service based at least partly on the traffic analytic data.

A system comprising:
- computer-readable memory storing executable instructions;
- and
- one or more processors in communication with the computer-readable memory and configured by the executable instructions to at least:
- monitor communications among a first set of system assets of a first networked environment, wherein the first set of system assets is associated with a first computing service;
- determine a transit relationship comprising an originating system asset and a target system asset, wherein the first set of system assets includes the originating system asset and the target system asset;
- generate traffic analytic data based at least partly on transit relationships of the monitored communications, wherein the traffic analytic data comprises information about a volume of communications among the first set of system assets;
- and
- analyze the traffic analytic data to generate a migration consideration set comprising a plurality of cloud service providers capable of performing the first computing service based at least partly on the traffic analytic data.
