A computational instance of a remote network management platform may execute a remote access call for a license consolidation server. The remote access call may contain instructions for obtaining concurrent license usage statistics from the license consolidation server. In response to obtaining the concurrent license usage statistics, the computational instance may update a software configuration with the concurrent license usage statistics, where the software configuration contains a license rights allocation for the concurrent software application. Based on the concurrent license usage statistics and the license rights allocations, the computational instance may generate a representation of a graphical user interface that contains an overview pane indicating a utilization of the concurrent software application. Then the computational instance may transmit, to a client device, the representation of the graphical user interface.

Remote software usage monitoring and entitlement analysis

A system may include a computational instance disposed within a remote network management platform and associated with a managed network, where the computational instance contains a configuration management database. The system may also include a software application disposed on a server device of the managed network and configured to perform operations comprising: obtaining, from the configuration management database, a list of directories, a list of file types, and a list of file names; remotely accessing a computing device of the managed network; for each respective directory in the list of directories, obtaining, from the computing device, information respectively related to discovered files that are: (i) disposed within the respective directory on the computing device, and (ii) specified by the list of file types or specified in the list of file names; and transmitting, to the configuration management database, the information related to the discovered files.

File-based software application discovery

Persistent storage may contain software models defining corresponding software packages and entitlements to a software package, wherein use of the entitlements is constrained by entitlement rules. One or more processors may be configured to: (i) determine, by querying computing devices, a first deployment of the software package; (ii) determine, by querying an interface of a public cloud platform, a second deployment of the software package, wherein use of the entitlements on the public cloud platform is constrained by platform rules; (iii) determine, based on the constraints, an assignment of the entitlements to the first deployment and the second deployment; (iv) determine that the assignment leaves one or more deployed instances of the software package not covered by the entitlements; and (v) determine a modification to the entitlements that: satisfies the constraints and facilitates a further assignment of the entitlements that covers all deployed instances of the software package.
