Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method, a device and a storage medium for determining a health state of an information system. At first, a baseline configuration document corresponding to the information system is received, and data records under inspection of the information system are acquired. The baseline configuration document defines baselines. Then, each of the data records under inspection is compared with at least one baseline defined in the baseline configuration document to obtain a comparing result between each of the data records under inspection and the at least one baseline. At last, the health state of the information system is determined according to the comparing result between each of the data records under inspection and the at least one baseline. A health-determining apparatus relative to the above-mentioned method is also provided. Therefore, by these method and apparatus, the health state of the information system is quantifiable.
