## Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product for implementing configuration solution service management is provided. The method includes ingesting from managed hardware and software service components associated with a first entity, data and associated metadata associated with establishing baseline analysis code. The data and associated metadata are analyzed via execution of code associated with a recurrent neural network and long short-term memory configured to determine if a current managed hardware or software solution service design is associated with client requirements and industry trends. Recommendations, statistical analysis, predictions, a proposed new client profile, and sizing attributes of the additional managed hardware and software service components are generated. In response, additional managed hardware and software service components are configured with respect to operationally functionality for the first entity.
