A method of network resource management comprising, with a processor, creating a model of an application, defining a number of substitution points within the model, expressing the substitution points as abstract models with a set of sub-types, and codifying a number of policies that express which sourcing option to use for each substitution point.

Network resource management

Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for managing best practices in modeling information technology (IT) services. An architecture for validating a service model using a plurality of best practices (PBPs) provides separation of concern between the service model and selection of best practices by enabling an independent selection of the service model and the PBPs. A best practice precedence (BPP) is configured to disambiguate conflicts between the PBPs and select a selected best practice (SBP) from the PBPs. A validation engine validates a compliance or non-compliance of the service model with the SBP. A refined service model is generated by combining selective portions of the SBP with the service model.
