1. A system comprising:
- one or more processors; and
a memory comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising;
accessing, from a data repository, a plurality of antipatterns, each antipattern relating to a possible misconfiguration of a remote computer system, each antipattern including software that searches the remote compute system for a misconfiguration, a performance problem or a security issue and returns an output representing the misconfiguration, the performance problem or the security issue discovered at the remote computer system;
accessing data of the remote computer system;
running the plurality of antipatterns on the data of the remote computer system to determine one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system; and
providing, as a digital transmission to at least a second data repository and an administrator client device, an additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system, wherein the additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system is stored in the second data repository, and wherein the additional output causes display, at the administrator client device, of an antipattern summary interface, the antipattern summary interface indicating a first number of hosts, including the remote computer system, to which a given antipattern from the plurality of antipatterns is applicable and a second number of hosts impacted by the determined one or more misconfigurations.

Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to detecting software misconfiguration at a remote machine. A control server stores, in a data repository, a plurality of antipatterns, each antipattern relating to a misconfiguration of a remote computer system. The control server accesses data of the remote computer system. The control server runs the plurality of antipatterns on the data of the remote computer system to determine one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system. The control server provides, as a digital transmission, an output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system.

10. A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
-
accessing, from a data repository, a plurality of antipatterns, each antipattern relating to a possible misconfiguration of a remote computer system, each antipattern including software that searches the remote compute system for a misconfiguration, a performance problem or a security issue and returns an output representing the misconfiguration, the performance problem or the security issue discovered at the remote computer system; accessing data of the remote computer system; running the plurality of antipatterns on the data of the remote computer system to determine one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system; and providing, as a digital transmission to at least a second data repository and an administrator client device, an additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system, wherein the additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system is stored in the second data repository, and wherein the additional output causes display, at the administrator client device, of an antipattern summary interface, the antipattern summary interface indicating a first number of hosts, including the remote computer system, to which a given antipattern from the plurality of antipatterns is applicable and a second number of hosts impacted by the determined one or more misconfigurations. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method comprising:
-
accessing, from a data repository, a plurality of antipatterns, each antipattern relating to a possible misconfiguration of a remote computer system, each antipattern including software that searches the remote compute system for a misconfiguration, a performance problem or a security issue and returns an output representing the misconfiguration, the performance problem or the security issue discovered at the remote computer system; accessing data of the remote computer system; running the plurality of antipatterns on the data of the remote computer system to determine one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system; and providing, as a digital transmission to at least a second data repository and an administrator client device, an additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system, wherein the additional output representing the determined one or more misconfigurations of the remote computer system is stored in the second data repository, and wherein the additional output causes display, at the administrator client device, of an antipattern summary interface, the antipattern summary interface indicating a first number of hosts, including the remote computer system, to which a given antipattern from the plurality of antipatterns is applicable and a second number of hosts impacted by the determined one or more misconfigurations. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
