Digital twin of it infrastructure

A cloud-computing system for creating a digital twin of an IT infrastructure and replicating a portion of the IT infrastructure, the cloud-computing system comprising:

• cloud memory embodied with instructions for identifying a collection of base servers in the IT infrastructure and generating the digital twin executable to function as the identified collection of base servers;
• and
• one or more processors programmed to:
• receive a request to create the digital twin of the IT infrastructure,
• access telemetry data of the IT infrastructure,
• crawl the IT infrastructure to identify base servers in the IT infrastructure,
• create a server graph representing the base servers and distances between the base servers in the IT infrastructure, and
• store the server graph as part of the digital twin, wherein the digital twin is executable to create a replicated portion of the IT infrastructure.

A method for deploying a digital twin of an IT infrastructure that replicates a portion of the IT infrastructure in a cloud-computing environment, the method comprising:

• accessing telemetry data of the IT infrastructure;
• crawling the IT infrastructure to identify servers and corresponding server-connection data in the IT infrastructure;
• identifying base servers of the IT infrastructure through comparing telemetry data and the server-connection data with data sets of other identified servers from other IT infrastructures;
• creating scripts that are executable to function as the base servers;
• receiving an on-demand request from a user or an automatic condition being satisfied to deploy the digital twin;
• and
• incident to the on-demand request or the automatic condition being satisfied, executing the scripts to function as the base servers and replicate the IT infrastructure.
