A method comprising: receiving an analytic task which includes a priority indicator associated with the analytic task, determining a position of the analytic task in a task queue, the task queue arranged in an order according to their priority indicators, selecting the analytic task based on the order of the task queue, sending the analytic task to an analytics service to determine if the analytics service has sufficient available resources to perform the analytic task, receiving an indication that the analytics service does not have sufficient available resources to perform the analytic task, repositioning the analytic task within the task queue, selecting the analytic task from the task queue based on the order of the task queue and a new position of the analytic task, sending the analytic task to the analytics service, and retrieving another analytic task to send to the analytics service.

Methods and system for throttling analytics processing

A method comprising: receiving object identifiers associated with each entity of an enterprise network, receiving relationship data indicating directionality of data flow between two or more entities of enterprise network, receiving search query which includes at least one of an object identifier associated with one of the entities or relationship data indicating directionality of data flow associated with one of the entities, traversing a portion of topology to identify objects of the portion of the topology and a pivot point, the pivot point being directionally coupled to at least three objects, identifying two mini-topologies based on two of the least three objects of the pivot point, traversing each of the two mini-topologies to identify further objects within the portion of the topology, generating a partial topology based on the traversal of the portion of the topology and of the mini-topologies, and providing information including objects identified in the partial topology.

Systems and methods for hub and spoke cross topology traversal

A method comprising: receiving from a third party virtualization platform: virtual machine manager identifiers identifying virtual machine managers, hypervisor identifiers identifying hypervisors and virtual machine identifiers identifying virtual machines, generating a first logical mapping of virtual machine managers to hypervisors, generating a second logical mapping of hypervisors to virtual machines, generating a third logical mapping of virtual machines to other virtual machines, receiving from network probes hypervisor traffic data identifying communication between hypervisors and entities of a switch fabric and virtual machine traffic data identifying communication between virtual machines to entities of the switch fabric, generating a fourth logical mapping of hypervisors to entities of the switch fabric based on the hypervisor traffic data, generating a fifth logical mapping virtual machines to entities of the switch fabric based on the virtual machine traffic data, and outputting a master mapping based on the first, second, fourth, and fifth logical mappings.

Systems and methods of discovering and traversing coexisting topologies

A method includes selecting an item. The method further includes determining a plurality of groups. The item is associated with each of the plurality of groups. The method includes determining a plurality of group policies for a policy type. Each of the plurality of group policies corresponds to one of the plurality of groups and comprises a setting. The method includes ranking the plurality of group policies based on a first predetermined priority. The method further includes generating a consolidated item policy. The consolidated item policy includes the settings in the plurality of group policies prioritized based on the ranking of the plurality of group policies. The method further includes assigning the consolidated item policy to the item.

Method and system for defining and consolidating policies based on complex group membership

Interactions with a particular graphical user interface (GUI) of a software system are caused to be recorded and a particular one of the interactions is identified as an interaction with a particular GUI element of the GUI. A particular type of GUI element corresponding to the particular GUI element is determined and at least a portion of an instruction is generated for inclusion in a test of the software system, the instruction referencing the particular GUI element as an instance of the particular type of GUI element.
