Abstract
Described are automatically generated software deployment bookmarks that maintain information regarding events and/or triggers with respect to a network software deployment operation. The bookmarks are accessible and useable for evaluating the progress and state of the deployment. For example, a bookmark may be generated when deployment to a client machine succeeds, when a software deployment package is created and/or distributed, and for network component and/or membership state changes. A set of bookmarks may be used to generate a curve indicative of the deployment progress over time, and may be compared to previous progress of deploying other network software to client computer systems that is based on maintained performance history data.
