Abstract
Techniques for topology based interoperability determination for an information technology (IT) infrastructure are described herein. An aspect includes receiving a replacement notification for an element of an IT infrastructure. A topology subgraph corresponding to the element is generated based on a topology graph of the IT infrastructure. A plurality of replacement candidates for the element is determined. A respective interoperability subgraph based on the topology subgraph is generated for each replacement candidate of the plurality of replacement candidates. A recommended replacement candidate is selected from the plurality of replacement candidates based on the generated interoperability subgraphs.
