Configuration management of devices from multiple vendors using a hardware abstraction capability is provided. Abstraction between a high-level representation and vendor specific terminology may assist in translating configuration commands and operational status indicators to a single consistent presentation interface. Information may be obtained from computer devices to represent operational metrics of a corporate network infrastructure. Collected metrics may be translated for consistency across vendors. Similarly, configuration commands may initially be provided without regard to vendor specific syntax. Utilizing the high-level abstracted representation, a user interface representation of operational status (without regard to vendor terminology) may be provided for a heterogenous rack of associated components from at least two different vendors. Collected data may be analyzed to provide predicted failure of components. Predicted failures may be further analyzed to provide a damage radius representative of potential impact caused by a predicted failure if that failure were to actually take place.

Monitoring time-base policy domain architecture

Systems and methods address automated temporally based configuration management of a procurement/deployment process that may be used at one or more data centers. A set of current configuration attributes and current parameter settings are maintained for a one or more data centers. Information may be obtained from a purchasing system describing a future device. Prior to actual arrival of the future device, the configuration for that future device may be defined. Upon detection of the uniquely identified future device being communicatively coupled to a management network, the previously defined configuration may be applied. Abstraction from a high-level to vendor specific configuration commands may also be incorporated to allow management of devices from multiple vendors.

Policy-based temporal domain configuration architecture

In some examples, a method includes constructing, by a computing device, a plurality of expressions using a generic query language that is independent of implementation of an associated data store, the associated data store supporting a plurality of operands comprising at least one comparison operand and multiple logical operands; generating, by the computing device, a single query including the plurality of expressions to the associated data store, wherein the plurality of expressions are connected using the multiple logical operands; transmitting, by the computing device, the single query to the associated data store; and receiving, by the computing device, a single set of results corresponding to the single query.
