Abstract
A descriptor for a multitier compute infrastructure is provided. A multitier topology map contains an inventory of network tier, application tier, and compute tier components and the relationships among the components. A business service can be defined as a logical grouping of components that transactionally implement a business process. A service descriptor includes the component dependencies that define the business service. The business service leverages the component dependencies to provide cross-tier visibility of the business process and performance analysis features.
