1-13. (canceled)
A method comprising,
- monitoring communications among networked resources of a networked environment, wherein the networked resources includes a plurality of hardware assets and a plurality of applications;
- using information of the monitored communications to assign the plurality of hardware assets and the plurality of applications to geographic locations;
- the monitoring communications among the networked resources including tagging communications among the networked resources, wherein the tagging includes identifying originating network resources of the tagged communications and target network resources of the tagged communications, wherein networked resources include the originating network resources and the target network resources;
- using the tagged communications to identify utilization of the networked resources at one or more locations of the geographic locations.
The method of claim 1, the monitoring communications among the networked resources including gathering information of communications among the networked resources using one or more network information sources.
The method of claim 1, wherein the identifying utilization of the networked resources comprises identifying utilization of at least one application of the plurality of applications.
The method of claim 1, wherein the identifying utilization of the networked resources comprises identifying client applications of the plurality of application utilizing the at least one application of the plurality of applications.
The method of claim 1, wherein the identifying utilization of the networked resources comprises recommending migration of a portion of the networked resources to a cloud computing platform.
