Abstract
Risk assessment for a computing system being developed can include receiving a user input specifying a proposed topology for a computing system. The proposed topology is defined by a first software product to be used and an architecture having a first non-functional component. A problem knowledge repository is searched using a processor for records of problems correlated with the proposed topology. A level of risk in implementing the computing system using the proposed topology is calculated according to the searching using the processor.
Claims10
A method, comprising:
- receiving a user input specifying a proposed topology for a computing system, wherein the proposed topology is defined by a first software product to be used and an architecture having a first non-functional component;
- searching, using a processor, a problem knowledge repository for records of problems correlated with the proposed topology;
- and
- calculating, using the processor, a level of risk in implementing the computing system using the proposed topology according to the searching.
