Uplifting of computer resources
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a computer-based system, an application criticality score for an application processed by a server based on a weighted Sarbanes Oxley score and a weighted data security score, wherein the weighting is based on an importance of a security of the application;
comparing, by the computer-based system, an operating system platform of the application processed by the server with the application criticality score of the application processed by the server;
determining, by the computer-based system and based on the comparison, an end of life target for the server;
prioritizing, by the computer-based system, uplifts of the server, along with a plurality of servers to create a prioritized list of servers, wherein the prioritizing is based on a set of parameters; and
removing, by the computer-based system, the server from the prioritized list of servers based on an indicator signifying the server was previously designated to be uplifted.

Abstract
The present disclosure improves upon existing systems and methods by providing a tool for managing processing resources. For instance, the presently described tool may be used to time replacement, plan for uplifts, budget for uplifts/decommissioning of hardware, and/or maintain a plurality of servers. This tool may lead to increased satisfaction, uptime, and a reduction of unexpected costs. The system may include initiating collection of variables to compile a prioritized list of servers, executing, a calculation application for determining a prioritized list of servers'"'"' end of life targets based on both technical and business parameters based on the entered variables, and prioritizing uplifts of the servers based on the technical and the business parameters.

19. A computer-based system comprising:
-
a processor, a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor, the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising; determining, by the computer-based system, an application criticality score for an application processed by a server based on a weighted Sarbanes Oxley score and a weighted data security score, wherein the weighting is based on an importance of a security of the application; comparing, by the computer-based system, an operating system platform of the application processed by the server with the application criticality score of the application processed by the server; determining, by the computer-based system and based on the comparison, an end of life target for the server; prioritizing, by the computer-based system, uplifts of the server, along with a plurality of servers to create a prioritized list of servers, wherein the prioritizing is based on a set of parameters; and removing, by the computer-based system, the server from the prioritized list of servers based on an indicator signifying the server was previously designated to be uplifted.

20. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
-
determining, by the computer-based system, an application criticality score for an application processed by a server based on a weighted Sarbanes Oxley score and a weighted data security score, wherein the weighting is based on an importance of a security of the application; comparing, by the computer-based system, an operating system platform of the application processed by the server with the application criticality score of the application processed by the server; determining, by the computer-based system and based on the comparison, an end of life target for the server; prioritizing, by the computer-based system, uplifts of the server, along with a plurality of servers to create a prioritized list of servers, wherein the prioritizing is based on a set of parameters; and removing, by the computer-based system, the server from the prioritized list of servers based on an indicator signifying the server was previously designated to be uplifted.
