Intelligent learning and management of a networked architecture
Intelligent learning and management of networked architectures is disclosed. A network architecture can be mapped to identify a set of interconnected hardware and software elements that comprise the network architecture. Data sources associated with the set of interconnected hardware and software elements can be identified and employed to compile data associated with the elements. The data can be utilized to determine an action to address potential negative effects of a change to the network architecture such as an update or patch. In one instance, the action corresponds to a reconfiguration of at least one of the set of interconnected hardware and software elements. Further, machine learning can be employed to determine a particular configuration. Once determined the action can be implemented on the network architecture.
