Provided is a method, computer program product, and system for adjusting a container-based application. A processor may receive one or more function calls at a container-based application. The processor may process the one or more function calls using the container-based application. The processor may obtain performance data from the container-based application based on the processing of the one or more function calls. The processor may analyze the performance data against a performance measure limit. The processor may adjust an aspect of the container-based application based on the analysis of the performance data. The aspect may be one or more selected from the group consisting of a resource and a functionality of the contain-based application.

Container-based applications

A method includes creating a digital twin that represents a computing infrastructure, the digital twin representing all microcode versions present in components in the computing infrastructure. The method further includes creating a database of a plurality of upgrades including at least one microcode version update and a corresponding criticality of each of the plurality of updates and emulating a first deployment of a first set of one or more of the plurality of updates with the digital twin.

Cognitive microcode simulation, planning, and risk assessment

Automation using infrastructure as code modules is provided by: receiving a service request implicating infrastructure elements for provisioning in a target hosting environment, selecting atomic Infrastructure as Code (IaC) modules comprising code definitions for execution to provision the infrastructure elements in the target environment, the atomic IaC modules being selected from a library of predefined executable atomic IaC modules that include atomic IaC modules for execution to provision varying infrastructure elements in varying hosting environments including the target environment, transforming the service request into a technical workflow using the selected atomic IaC module(s) and transformation templates that direct invocation of the atomic IaC modules using desired parameters for provisioning the infrastructure elements in the target hosting environment, and initiating orchestration of the provisioning of the infrastructure elements in the target environment via execution of the selected set of atomic IaC modules.

Automation utilizing infrastructure as code modules

Systems and methods for dynamically bridging between Systems of Record and Systems of Engagement are disclosed, including: receiving a request to provision a new workload in a distributed computing environment; identifying a plurality of components available in a system of record (SoR); receiving a selected component of at least one of the plurality of components available in the SoR; and provisioning the new workload by creating a data flow using the selected component.
