An embodiment of the invention provides a system and method for managing computing resources in a cloud computing environment, wherein the system includes a data analysis module connected to a processor. The data analysis module predicts the demand for the computing resources, wherein the demand is predicted based on internet user activity. The internet user activity includes: the number of web pages that include at least one select term a predetermined amount of times, the number of times the web pages that include the at least one select term a predetermined amount of times are viewed, and the number of times the select term is entered into an internet search engine. The processor increases resource capacity in the cloud computing environment when the predicted demand is above a first threshold. The processor decreases resource capacity in the cloud computing environment when the predicted demand is below a second threshold.

Automatic cloud provisioning based on related internet news and social network trends

In general, embodiments of the invention provide an approach to discover and enforce coding conventions among a group of developers. Specifically, source code files for a group of developers are imported from a code repository. The source code files are analyzed to discover the commonly used coding conventions of the group. Convention templates are generated based on these coding conventions. Each convention template is assigned a weighted value, and the convention templates are reviewed and approved based on the weighted value.

Coding convention discovery and enforcement

A method for s identifying program files within one or more programs that will likely require update to implement a proposed programming task is disclosed. A processor identifies a previous programming task that matches the proposed programming task. The processor also identifies a set of program files that were updated to implement the previous programming task. The processor then displays the set of program files or existing versions of the set of program files as program files that will likely require update for the proposed programming task.

Smart source code evaluation and suggestion system

An approach for monitoring and protecting electronic data in a networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment) is provided. In a typical embodiment, an activity monitor gathers characteristics of data traffic of one or more virtual machines. The data traffic is analyzed to determine whether any of the data traffic is indicative of a malicious activity (e.g., unauthorized data transfers). If it appears a VM is engaging in malicious activity, then a counter for the VM is incremented by a predefined value that is associated with the malicious activity. When the counter for the VM exceeds a point threshold, a remediation action is taken with respect to the VM.
