Aspects of the invention include a computer-implemented method, in which includes determining whether a combination of a first commodity and a computing system satisfies a manufacturing requirement. Additionally, whether a combination of a second commodity and the computing system satisfies the manufacturing requirement is predicted based at least in part on a comparison of the combination of the first commodity and the computing system and the combination of the second commodity and the computing system. Then either the first commodity or the second commodity is inserted into a computer system based at least in part on a comparison of an actual performance of the first commodity and a predicted performance of the second commodity in the computing system.
