Abstract

A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring an interaction of a user with a data center monitoring and management console throughout a plurality of developer journey steps, the interaction of the user including interaction with a plurality of application program interfaces; analyzing the interaction with the plurality of application program interfaces associated with each of the plurality of developer journey steps; and, generating an application program interface readiness score for each of the plurality of application program interfaces based upon the analyzing.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A computer-implementable method for performing a data center monitoring and management operation, the method comprising:
monitoring an interaction of a user with a data center monitoring and management console throughout a plurality of developer journey steps, the interaction of the user including interaction with a plurality of application program interfaces;
analyzing the interaction with the plurality of application program interfaces associated with each of the plurality of developer journey steps; and,
generating an application program interface readiness score for each of the plurality of application program interfaces based upon the analyzing; and wherein
the application program interface readiness score is based on readiness scores for each of the plurality of developer journey steps.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the application program interface readiness score provides an indication of a maturity of a particular application program interface.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein:
the indication of the maturity of the particular application program interface includes at least one of an early mature indication, a mid-mature indication, a mature indication and a very mature indication.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
obtaining a customer satisfaction rating regarding a particular application program interface; and,
using the customer satisfaction rating when generating the application program interface readiness score.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the plurality of developer journey steps include one or more of a new project step, a scope project step, an infrastructure identification step, a tool/pipeline selection step, a buying transaction step, a tooling implementation step, a resource automation step, a test step, a training step, a scoping step, a functional testing step, an automated code resilience testing step, a deployment step, a monitor and optimize step and a review step.

6. A system comprising:
a processor;
a data bus coupled to the processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium embodying instructions, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the instructions executable by the processor and configured for:
monitoring an interaction of a user with a data center monitoring and management console throughout a plurality of developer journey steps, the interaction of the user including interaction with a plurality of application program interfaces;
analyzing the interaction with the plurality of application program interfaces associated with each of the plurality of developer journey steps; and,
generating an application program interface readiness score for each of the plurality of application program interfaces based upon the analyzing; and wherein
the application program interface readiness score is based on readiness scores for each of the plurality of developer journey steps.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein:
the application program interface readiness score provides an indication of a maturity of a particular application program interface.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein:
the indication of the maturity of the particular application program interface includes at least one of an early mature indication, a mid-mature indication, a mature indication and a very mature indication.

9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
obtaining a customer satisfaction rating regarding a particular application program interface; and,
using the customer satisfaction rating when generating the application program interface readiness score.

10. The system of claim 6 , wherein:
the plurality of developer journey steps include one or more of a new project step, a scope project step, an infrastructure identification step, a tool/pipeline selection step, a buying transaction step, a tooling implementation step, a resource automation step, a test step, a training step, a scoping step, a functional testing step, an automated code resilience testing step, a deployment step, a monitor and optimize step and a review step.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium embodying computer executable instructions, the computer executable instructions configured for:
monitoring an interaction of a user with a data center monitoring and management console throughout a plurality of developer journey steps, the interaction of the user including interaction with a plurality of application program interfaces;
analyzing the interaction with the plurality of application program interfaces associated with each of the plurality of developer journey steps; and,
generating an application program interface readiness score for each of the plurality of application program interfaces based upon the analyzing; and wherein
the application program interface readiness score is based on readiness scores for each of the plurality of developer journey steps.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein:
the application program interface readiness score provides an indication of a maturity of a particular application program interface.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 12 , wherein:
the indication of the maturity of the particular application program interface includes at least one of an early mature indication, a mid-mature indication, a mature indication and a very mature indication.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the computer executable instructions are further configured for:
obtaining a customer satisfaction rating regarding a particular application program interface; and,
using the customer satisfaction rating when generating the application program interface readiness score.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein:
the plurality of developer journey steps include one or more of a new project step, a scope project step, an infrastructure identification step, a tool/pipeline selection step, a buying transaction step, a tooling implementation step, a resource automation step, a test step, a training step, a scoping step, a functional testing step, an automated code resilience testing step, a deployment step, a monitor and optimize step and a review step.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein:
the computer executable instructions are deployable to a client system from a server system at a remote location.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein:
the computer executable instructions are provided by a service provider to the user on an on-demand basis.
