    Abstract: A computing system may include a database disposed within a remote network management platform that manages a managed network, and server device(s) associated with the platform and configured to: transmit, to a third-party computing system, a request for general information identifying computing resources of the third-party computing system assigned to the managed network; receive, from the third-party computing system, a response indicating resource names and types of the resources that were identified; based on the response, determine that a first resource is of a first type, and responsively store, in the database, a first representation that has just data fields containing the general information from the response that identifies the first resource; and based on the response, determine that a second resource is of a second type, and responsively store, in the database, a second representation that has data fields arranged to contain specific information about the second resource.

    Abstract: Identifying components of a computer network based on connections between the components includes performing a first discovery operation to identify respective attributes of a first set of components and performing a second discovery operation to infer respective components of the second set of components not identifiable by the first discovery operation. The second discovery operation is performed by sending probes for collecting network flow data indicative of network flows between components of the first set of components and other components of the computer network. The collected network flow data is used to identify connections between ones of the first set of components and ones of the other components, determining sequences of the identified connections, and infer respective attributes of at least some of the second set of components based on the determined sequences of the identified connections.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and media are presented that are used to recompute a service model to match data in a configuration management database. Recomputing includes detecting a change to a configuration item in a configuration management database and marking a recomputing environment indicating a recomputing environment to be recomputed based on the change. Using a recomputation job, a service environment database is queried and a response is received from the service environment indicating at least the recomputing environment. The recomputation job then recomputes the service environment to match a service model to the change in the configuration management database.

    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein provide apparatus and techniques for identifying and classifying processes and associated applications executing in a network. All processes executing in a network may be identified using a discovery process. The processes may be clustered based on associations between the processes. Suggested application entries may then be generated based at least in part on the clusters of processes. A configuration item type and a discovery pattern may be generated for each suggested application entry. A subsequent discovery process may use the configuration item type and discovery patterns to identify associated configuration items in the network.
