Abstract
Some embodiments of the invention provide a novel method of managing network nodes that implement a logical multi-node application. The method can comprise obtaining log data describing events relating to a plurality of network nodes and obtaining network flow data describing flow of data between the plurality of network nodes. The method may identify roles performed by the network nodes. The method may detect relationships between the network nodes. The identified roles and the detected relationships are analyzed to identify which of the network nodes implement a logical multi-node application. Implementation data based on the identification of which of the network nodes implement the logical multi-node application can be processed to automatically control management of at least one of the network nodes.
