US Patent 10346292 Software component recommendation based on multiple trace runs

Recommendations may be generated while calculating performance metrics from multiple uses of a software component. A tracing service may collect trace data from multiple uses of a software component, where each use may be done on different conditions. The performance metric analysis may identify various factors that may affect the performance of a software component, then present those factors to a user in different delivery mechanisms. In one such mechanism, a recommended set of hardware and software configurations may be generated as part of an operational analysis of a software component.
