Cohort Manipulation and Optimization
First Claim
1. A method, in a data processing system comprising at least one computing device and a plurality of computing resources, comprising:
- receiving a cohort display request;
retrieving a plurality of cohort data records in response to the received request, wherein each of the cohort data records corresponds to a cohort selected from a plurality of cohorts, and wherein the plurality of cohorts are similar computer systems;
displaying a plurality of graphic user interface (GUI) controls on a display device, wherein each of the GUI controls corresponds to one of the retrieved cohort data records;
receiving a user selection corresponding to a selected one of the GUI controls; and
execute a cohort action on the cohort corresponding to the selected GUI control.

Abstract
An approach is provided to visually depict cohort data to a user. The approach includes receiving a cohort display request (e.g., from a user, etc.). In response to the request, the approach retrieves a plurality of cohort data records, with each of the cohort data records corresponding to a cohort selected from a group of cohorts. In this approach, the group of cohorts represent similar computer systems. The approach displays a set of graphic user interface (GUI) controls on a display device, with each of the GUI controls corresponds to one of the retrieved cohort data records. A user selection is received that corresponds to a selected one of the GUI controls. The system responds by executing a cohort action on the cohort corresponding to the selected GUI control.
