Centralized Management Layer for Independent Platform Automation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Managing multiple independent platforms within an organization is complex due to geographical separation, varying data schemas, and the need for manual updates, which complicates administration and integration.
Innovation Solution
A central computing system with a user interface allows administrators to manage multiple platforms via scripts and jobs, automating tasks across remote servers and databases, ensuring efficient, secure, and reliable management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple independent platforms are used to provide services, then service functionality and versatility are improved, but system complexity and management difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a centralized management system as an intermediary layer between administrators and multiple independent platforms. This management system provides a unified interface for deploying, monitoring, and managing applications across diverse platforms, thereby reducing the complexity of direct multi-platform management while preserving service versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The management system is designed with universal capabilities that enable it to handle multiple types of platforms (on-premises, cloud, hybrid) and various application workloads through a single consolidated interface. This multi-functional approach allows one system to manage diverse infrastructure without requiring platform-specific management tools for each component.
2Ease of operation
If manual updates and maintenance are performed on independent systems, then flexibility in handling specific platform requirements is maintained, but time consumption and administrative burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables administrators to define policies, configurations, and update procedures in advance through the centralized management interface. These pre-defined actions are then automatically executed across multiple platforms, eliminating the need for manual intervention during routine maintenance while preserving the ability to adapt to specific platform requirements through configurable policies.
Solution Approach 2:
The management system implements automated self-service capabilities where applications and platforms can be updated, monitored, and managed without requiring manual intervention. The system automatically executes updates, monitors status, and handles maintenance tasks, significantly reducing administrative time while maintaining flexibility through policy-based configurations that can be adapted to different platforms.
3Productivity
If centralized management is implemented, then administration efficiency and integration are improved, but system complexity and initial setup requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The management system is segmented into modular components that can be independently configured and deployed. This segmentation allows the system to be gradually implemented across different platforms without requiring complete system redesign, thereby improving administration efficiency while managing the complexity through modular architecture.
Data Source
AI summary
A computing device configured to manage one or more computing devices of an enterprise is disclosed. The computing device includes a transceiver, a memory, and a processor. The memory may include instructions stored thereon, that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to provide a user interface comprising one or more data objects, receive a command via the user interface, validate the command, prepare a script based on the command, the script comprising computer-readable instructions configured to be executed by one or more remote servers, schedule the script to be executed by the one or more remote servers, and receive a result from the one or more remote servers. The script is configured to implement the command on the one or more remote servers in order to facilitate the management of the processing system of the enterprise.
