CENTRALIZED CLOUD SERVICE MANAGEMENT
An information retrieval method for cloud service administration is provided. The method may include establishing a connection with a semantic database. In some embodiments, the semantic database is configured to store information for different cloud services, and the information includes information regarding a first cloud service and information regarding a second cloud service. In some embodiments, the information regarding the first cloud service includes a first entity information and the information regarding the second cloud service includes a second entity information. The method further includes transmitting to the semantic database a request to obtain information regarding an asset. Then the method may include receiving from the semantic database an indication that first entity information and the second entity information being linked and being both related to the asset.
1 . An information management method for service administration, the method being implemented by one or more computer servers and comprising:
establishing a connection with a semantic database, wherein the semantic database is configured to store information for different services, the information comprising information regarding a first service and information regarding a second service, wherein the information regarding the first service includes a first entity information and the information regarding the second service includes a second entity information;
transmitting to the semantic database a request to obtain information regarding an asset; and
receiving from the semantic database an indication that first entity information and the second entity information being linked and being both related to the asset.
2 . The information management method of claim 1 further comprising:
obtaining the first entity information from the first service and the second entity information from the service;
storing first entity information and second entity information in the semantic database; and
annotating first entity information and second entity information with a set of generic vocabularies, wherein a first property in the first entity information is annotated with a first generic vocabulary and a second property in the second entity information is annotated with the first generic vocabulary.
3 . The information management method of claim 1 further comprising:
generating a display request for displaying the asset in association with the first service and second service.
4 . The information management method of claim 1 , wherein the semantic database is a graph database.
5 . The information management method of claim 1 , wherein the asset comprises a user, a user group, a license, a file, a mailbox, a hardware, a computing device and/or an organization.
6 . The information management method of claim 1 further comprising:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information and the second entity information;
determining that the first entity information and the second entity information are both of a first type;
determining whether the first entity information and the second entity information are to be linked based on one or more preset criteria; and
in response to the determination that the first entity information and second entity information are to be linked, generate and transmit a request to the semantic database to link the first entity information and the second entity information.
7 . The information management method of claim 1 further comprising:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information and the second entity information; and
determining the first and second entity information are to be unlinked based on a set of preset criteria; and
generating and transmitting to the semantic database a request to unlink the first and second entity information.
8 . The information management method of claim 2 , wherein annotating the first entity information and the second entity information with the set of generic vocabularies comprises:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information;
determining the first entity information is of a first type;
retrieving one or more generic vocabularies from the set of generic vocabularies based on the first type;
annotating the first entity information according to the one or more generic vocabularies.
9 . The information management method of claim 2 , wherein the method further comprises:
creating a common entity including a first common entity, wherein the first common entity includes the first generic vocabulary.
10 . A computer system configured to managing information for service administration, the computer system comprising one or more processor configured to execute machine-readable instructions to cause the computer system to perform:
establishing a connection with a semantic database, wherein the semantic database is configured to store information for different services, the information comprising information regarding a first service and information regarding a second service, wherein the information regarding the first service includes a first entity information and the information regarding the second service includes a second entity information;
transmitting to the semantic database a request to obtain information regarding an asset; and
receiving from the semantic database an indication that first entity information and the second entity information being linked and being both related to the asset.
11 . The computer system of claim 10 is further caused to perform:
obtaining the first entity information from the first service and the second entity information from the service;
storing first entity information and second entity information in the semantic database; and
annotating first entity information and second entity information with a set of generic vocabularies, wherein a first property in the first entity information is annotated with a first generic vocabulary and a second property in the second entity information is annotated with the first generic vocabulary.
12 . The computer system of claim 10 is further caused to perform:
generating a display request for displaying the asset in association with the first service and second service.
13 . The computer system of claim 10 , wherein the semantic database is a graph database.
14 . The computer system of claim 10 , wherein the asset comprises a user, a user group, a license, a file, a mailbox, a hardware, a computing device and/or an organization.
15 . The computer system of claim 10 is further caused to perform:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information and the second entity information;
determining that the first entity information and the second entity information are both of a first type;
determining whether the first entity information and the second entity information are to be linked based on one or more preset criteria; and
in response to the determination that the first entity information and second entity information are to be linked, generate and transmit a request to the semantic database to link the first entity information and the second entity information.
16 . The computer system of claim 10 is further caused to perform:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information and the second entity information; and
determining the first and second entity information are to be unlinked based on a set of preset criteria; and
generating and transmitting to the semantic database a request to unlink the first and second entity information.
17 . The computer system of claim 11 , wherein annotating the first entity information and the second entity information with the set of generic vocabularies comprises:
retrieving from the semantic database the first entity information;
determining the first entity information is of a first type;
retrieving one or more generic vocabularies from the set of generic vocabularies based on the first type;
annotating the first entity information according to the one or more generic vocabularies.
18 . The computer system of claim 11 is further caused to perform:
creating a common entity including a first common entity, wherein the first common entity includes the first generic vocabulary.
