Abstract
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer system monitors information assets providing data for constructing a logical entity. The information assets are dependent upon each other for data and form a topology. The computer system receives an event message associated with an information asset. The event message includes information relating to one or more conditions of that information asset. The computer system processes the received event message to determine the presence of a change within the associated information asset that affects the topology. The change is determined based on the information relating to the one or more conditions within the received event message. The computer system further transmits a notification of the change to one or more entities in response to determining the presence of the change. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for monitoring information assets.
