Abstract:
An approach for addressing (e.g., preventing) detected network intrusions in a virtualized/networked (e.g., cloud) computing environment is provided. In a typical embodiment, users may group components/systems of an environment/domain according to a range of security sensitivity levels/classifications. The users may further configure rules for responding to security threats for each security sensitivity level/classification. For example, if a “highly dangerous” security threat is detected in or near a network segment that contains highly sensitive systems, the user may configure rules that will automatically isolate those systems that fall under the high security classification. Such an approach allows for more granular optimization and/or management of system security/intrusion prevention that may be managed at a system level rather than at a domain level.

Abstract:
An approach for delaying social media messages is provided herein. A first computing device receives user preferences. The first computing device detects a social media message of a user. The first computing device determines that the user is not in the physical location. The first computing device determines whether to delay the posting of the social media message based on a comparison of the content of the social media message with the received user preferences.
Abstract:
Approaches for automatically managing user privileges for computer resources based on determined levels of expertise in a networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment) are provided. In a typical approach, a user profile associated with a prospective user of a set of computer resources in the networked computing environment may be accessed. The user profile may include information pertaining to a skill level of the prospective user with respect to the set of computer resources. Based on the information contained in the user profile, an expertise level of the prospective user with respect to the set of computer resources may be determined, and a corresponding score may be calculated. Based on the score, a level of user privileges for the set of computer resources may be provided.

Abstract:
An approach for deploying and managing applications in a networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment) is provided. In one aspect, a user uploads an application for deployment in the networked computing environment. Metadata of the application is analyzed and compared to metadata of previously deployed applications. Using the comparison, a set of architectures used in conjunction with previously deployed application(s) with similar platform and middleware requirements are presented to a user. The user can select an architecture for deploying the application. The application is continuously monitored after deployment, and alternative architectures to improve the application can be presented to the user, if desired.

Abstract:
Approaches for routing data to storage are provided. An approach includes determining implicit metadata from explicit metadata received with a request from a user to store a file. The approach also includes determining a storage resource based on the explicit metadata, the implicit metadata, and a registry of storage resources. The approach additionally includes routing data of the file to the determined storage resource.
