Patent attributes
A method for identifying and evaluating potential computer network configuration problems as related to deployment of one or more computer applications accessed via an associated computer network architecture is described. The method includes emulating the computer network architecture and a capability associated with network interconnections between computer application points of use and associated with the computer network architecture, identifying computer applications hosted at each of the computer systems within the computer architecture, estimating response times for hosted computer applications for a plurality of network architecture interconnection conditions, and determining, based on the response time estimates, at least one network architecture reconfiguration scenario for improving performance of the network architecture with respect to a specific computer application.
