1. A system, comprising:

a memory; and

a processor in communication with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:

receive a request to analyze an infrastructure comprising a first set of components, wherein the request includes a first set of service level indicators associated with the first set of components, wherein a service level indicator is a defined quantitative measure of some aspect of a level of service that is provided by an infrastructure, and a first set of service level objectives associated with the infrastructure;

retrieve keywords associated with the infrastructure;

automatically query a database, which comprises data associated with implementations of infrastructures, to retrieve data associated with a second set of components of a second infrastructure which are associated with the keywords, wherein each implementation is a previously built infrastructure comprised of one or more components, wherein the data associated with the second set of components includes a second set of service level indicators and a second set of service level objectives;

determine whether the second set of service level objectives correspond to the first set of service level objectives;

upon the determining that the second set of service level objectives correspond to the first set of service level objectives, add extra service level indicators from the second set of service level indicators to the first set of service level indicators to create a third set of service level indicators, wherein the extra service level indicators are additional service level indicators based on which a determination is made in order to determine whether the first set of service level objectives are being met;

monitor the third set of service level indicators during operation of the infrastructure to determine whether the first set of service level objectives are met;

determine, during operation of the infrastructure, at least one service level indicator of the third set of service level indicators that fails to meet at least one service level objective of the first set of service level objectives; and

upon the determining that the at least one service level indicator of the third set of service level indicators fails to meet the at least one service level objective of the first set of service level objectives, determine at least one replacement component for the infrastructure and modify the infrastructure using the at least one replacement component.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to: upon the determining that the at least one service level indicator of the third set of service level indicators fails to meet the at least one service level objective of the first set of service level objectives, output an alert that the first set of components fail to meet the first set of service level objectives.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the retrieving keywords associated with the infrastructure comprises:

retrieving metadata associated with the infrastructure; and

analyzing the metadata to retrieve keywords associated with the infrastructure.
