US 2010/0064035 A1 · METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SHARING PERFORMANCE DATA BETWEEN DIFFERENT INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PRODUCT/SOLUTION DEPLOYMENTS

Abstract

A method and system for dynamically sharing performance information among multiple computing nodes. One implementation involves dynamically obtaining performance information from deployments of an information technology (IT) product/solution at said computing nodes, and transmitting the obtained performance information to a server over a communication network for storing the obtained performance information in a knowledge database. The server operates to dynamically determine new configuration information based on the information in the database, store the new configuration in the database, and provide the new configuration information to said deployments by transmitting the new configuration information over the network.

A system for dynamically sharing performance information among multiple computing nodes, comprising:

one or more client modules, and a server module;
each client module configured for operating at a deployment of an information technology (IT) product/solution at a computing node, each client module further configured for dynamically obtaining performance information from the corresponding deployment and transmitting the obtained performance information to a server over a communication network;
the server module configured for storing the obtained performance information in a knowledge database, dynamically determining new configuration information based on the information in the database, and storing the new configuration in the database, and providing the new configuration information to each deployment client module by transmitting the new configuration information over the network.

A computer program product for dynamically sharing performance information among multiple computing nodes, comprising a computer usable medium including a computer readable program, wherein the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to:

dynamically obtain performance information from deployments of an information technology (IT) product/solution at said computing nodes;
transmit the obtained performance information to a server over a communication network for storing the obtained performance information in a knowledge database;
and
dynamically determine new configuration information at the server based on the information in the database, store the new configuration in the database, and dynamically provide the new configuration information to said deployments by transmitting the new configuration information over the network.
