1. A computer-implemented method for automatically creating at least one relationship specification, the method comprising the steps of:

  • observing and capturing at least one interaction between two or more components of at least one distributed computing system at run-time;

    consolidating the at least one interaction into at least one interaction pattern; and

    using the at least one interaction pattern to create at least one relationship specification, wherein the at least one relationship specification is useable for managing the at least one distributed computing system;

    wherein the interaction pattern between the two or more components comprises at least one causal relationship between interactions of the two or more components, wherein the at least one causal relationship between a first interaction and a second interaction comprises a relationship in which the first interaction causes an event on the at least one distributed computing system in a same thread as the second interaction on the at least one distributed computing system.
