GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR MANAGING SERVICES IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of managing services via a graphical user interface, comprising:
- discovering available components that make up a distributed computing system, the available components including available hardware components and available software components that operate on the available hardware components;
graphically displaying the available components and dependencies between the available components in a map of the distributed computing system;
graphically displaying a plurality of undeployed services;
receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of undeployed services and a selection of at least one of the available components; and
deploying the selected undeployed service to the selected available component.

Abstract
Available components that make up a distributed computing system are discovered. The available components include available hardware components and available software components that operate on the available hardware components. The available components and dependencies between the available components are graphically displayed in a map of the distributed computing system. A plurality of undeployed services is also graphically displayed. A selection of one of the plurality of undeployed services and a selection of one of the available components is received. The selected undeployed service is deployed to the selected available component.
