Abstract: An example system includes persistent storage and a discovery application configured to perform operations including obtaining a uniform resource locator (URL) that addresses a function of an application programming interface (API) provided by a remote computing system of remote computing systems that provide computing resources. The function returns attributes of computing resources specified by the URL. The operations additionally include generating (i) a system-specific portion of a request that invokes execution of the function and (ii) a system-invariant portion of the request. The system-specific portion adheres to first rules adopted by the remote computing system for interacting with the API. The system-invariant portion adheres to second rules adopted by each of the remote computing systems for interacting with respective APIs thereof. The operations yet further include transmitting the request to the remote computing system, receiving therefrom a response containing the attributes, and storing, in the persistent storage, the attributes.

Abstract: A computing system is disposed within a computational instance of a remote network management platform associated with a managed network. The computing system (i) performs a discovery process that identifies attributes of computing devices and software applications disposed within the managed network; (ii) generates a list of keywords based on the identified attributes as stored, including a particular keyword associated with a first computing device or a first software application of those disposed within the managed network; (iii) searches for the particular keyword in one or more files from the managed network; (iv) determines that the particular keyword is included in a file associated with a second computing device or a second software application of those disposed within the managed network; and (v) defines an operational mapping between: (a) the first computing device or the first software application and (b) the second computing device or the second software application.

Abstract: A computing system may include a database disposed within a remote network management platform that manages a managed network, and a software application associated with the platform and configured to: obtain, from an external computing system, information about a function-application arranged to execute source code segment(s) on demand; determine that the obtained information relates to (i) a plurality of authorization-keys each respectively arranged to authorize on-demand execution of one of the source code segments, (ii) a first key-value string pair that enables establishment of connectivity to a service of the external computing system or of another computing system, and/or (iii) a second key-value string pair that enables establishment of connectivity to a data source of the external computing system or of another computing system, and responsively determine association(s) between the source code segment(s), the function-application, the service, and/or the data source; and store the association(s) in the database.

Abstract: A computing system may include a database disposed within a remote network management platform that manages a managed network, and a software application associated with the platform. The software application may be configured to: obtain a unit of programmatic code from a third-party computing system, where the unit of programmatic code is hosted by the third-party computing system on behalf of the managed network, and where a program using the unit of programmatic code is executable by computing resources of the third-party computing system that are assigned on demand; parse the unit of programmatic code for a pattern indicative of respective relationships between the unit of programmatic code and service(s) provided by the third-party computing system; generate an association between the unit of programmatic code and the service(s); and store, in the database, representations of the unit of programmatic code, the service(s), and the association therebetween as discovered configuration items.
