Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If template-driven cloud designs are used, then design creation is simple and cost-effective, but the system cannot handle emerging technologies and diverse infrastructure permutations
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from static template-driven designs to dynamic autonomous design that adapts to emerging technologies. The autonomous cloud design system continuously learns from new technologies and updates its design models, allowing it to handle diverse infrastructure permutations while maintaining simplicity through automated decision-making processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameters of design creation from manual template selection to automated optimization. By using machine learning algorithms to analyze multiple parameters (cost, performance, scalability) simultaneously, the system achieves both simplicity in execution and adaptability in handling new technologies.
2Ease of operation
If manual or Excel approaches are used for cloud design, then implementation is straightforward, but the complexity of new technology permutations overwhelms the process
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces manual mechanical processes (spreadsheet calculations, manual design iterations) with automated computational systems. The autonomous cloud design system uses algorithms to generate, evaluate, and select optimal designs automatically, handling complex technology permutations without human intervention while maintaining ease of operation through centralized automated control.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically generating and optimizing its own designs without requiring manual input for each scenario. The autonomous design system evaluates multiple technology permutations independently and selects optimal solutions based on predefined criteria, eliminating the need for manual analysis of complex configurations.
3Ease of manufacture
If conventional design approaches are used, then basic cloud designs can be created easily, but life-cycle cost optimization becomes exceedingly complex with new technologies
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains continuous optimization of life-cycle costs through ongoing automated analysis. The autonomous cloud design system continuously evaluates design options against multiple criteria including initial cost, operational cost, and scalability, providing continuous improvement without requiring discrete manual optimization cycles.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-calculating and pre-evaluating multiple design scenarios before final selection. The autonomous design system generates and ranks multiple potential solutions in advance, allowing for rapid selection and implementation while optimizing for life-cycle costs without requiring time-consuming manual analysis during deployment.
