AUTOMATED TECHNIQUES FOR DETECTING USAGE OF SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS IN COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT USING CONFIGURATION OBJECTS

摘要

The systems and methods provided herein provide techniques for discovering applications installed in a cluster-based computing environment. A catalog of signatures is obtained. One or more clusters are scanned to obtain information about configuration parameters in the one or more clusters. The catalog of signatures is compared with the information from scanning comprising configuration parameters to identify software applications installed on a per-cluster basis.
