Service and application management in information technology systems
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of managing software installed on a client system comprising:
- initiating two or more embedded services integrated with the software installed on the client system, wherein the embedded services comprise a health check monitoring service to automatically trigger one of a system incident message and an administrative task message in response to a generated event, a support service to handle at least one of a system incident message and a user incident message, a software maintenance service to automatically deploy of one or more software updates to the software installed on the client system, and a continuous improvement service to implement one or more recommended actions to improve an efficiency of the client system;
aggregating information outputted from the initiated embedded services; and
displaying the aggregated information in a graphical user interface;

Abstract
Systems and techniques for managing services and applications of a client system, such as an enterprise computer system, reduce the operational workload and optimize daily support process by deliverying embedded services in client system with direct connection of services into a back-end system so that back-end system processes can analyze client system information and provide detailed reports and analyses and with continuous (or regular) data exchange between client system and backend system to ensure efficient client system software processes. The embedded services can include support, operation, change and deploy, and plan and optimize services. The output of at least one of these services can be pushed to and displayed in a graphical user interface. A fact sheet provided with he graphical user interface contains on one page all the information that is needed to clearly show who is responsible for handling information technology problems, incidents, tasks, and service requests.

12. A system for managing software, the system comprising:
-
a plurality of client computer systems, each client computer system comprising a processor, a display device, a network interface, an input device, and a computer readable medium;
a computer program product stored on the computer readable medium of at least one of the client computer systems, the stored computer program product including executable instructions causing the at least one client computer system to;
initiate two or more embedded services integrated with an enterprise software product stored on the computer readable medium based on a service level agreement, wherein the embedded services comprise a health check monitoring service to automatically trigger one of a system incident message and an administrative task message in response to a generated event, a support service to handle at least one of a system incident message and a user incident message, a software maintenance service to automatically deploy of one or more software updates to the software installed on the client system, and a continuous improvement service to implement one or more recommended actions to improve an efficiency of the client system;
aggregate information outputted from the initiated embedded services; and
display the aggregated information in a graphical user interface. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
