Abstract: A method performed by a controller configured to communicate with one or more cloud platforms that are configured to host application components, which are configured to implement user services over a network, the method comprising: generating an application dependency mapping of the application components; collecting traffic flow data to identify data transfers between the application components; defining an application boundary around particular application components of the application components in the application dependency mapping; overlaying the application dependency mapping, the traffic flow data, and the application boundary, to identify particular data transfers between the particular application components; computing a network cost based on individual costs of the particular data transfers; and adding, to the network cost, compute and storage costs for the particular application components, to produce a total cost of using the particular application components.

Abstract: A consumer of a software module issues a module certificate that enables a testing entity to automatically validate a software module from a producer of the software module. The consumer receives a request for a module certificate from the producer of the software module. The request indicates attributes of the software module. The consumer determines whether the attributes of the software module are within predetermined limits, and if the attributes are within predetermined limits, the consumer generates and signs the module certificate including the attributes of the software module. The consumer issues the module certificate to the producer of the software module. Once the consumer obtains a software package including the software module and the module certificate from the producer, the consumer directs a testing entity to validate the software module with the module certificate.
