Abstract

Systems and methods are described for intelligent software patch management. In an example, a system can receive a selection of device attributes. The system can associate a group of computing devices with attribute values that correspond to each device. The system can also create value pairs of unique pairs of values for each computing device. The system can select a set of computing devices for a deployment ring that maximizes diversity of the values or value pairs. The system can deploy the software patch to the selected devices and monitor device performance for a predetermined period of time before continuing to the next deployment ring or rolling back the update.
