==============================================================
Abstract:
Many enterprises perform data-center transformations, consolidations,
and migrations to reduce costs and make IT greener.
These projects start with a discovery phase where infrastructure
and applications are analyzed to detect software and data dependencies
across
different servers.

Galapagos is a project at IBM Research for performing this discovery,
with a focus on minimizing the overall time and risk for this important
engagement phase. We describe technology choices resulting from this
focus,
some of the rather surprising, and we show discovery and use case results
from
some real engagements.

Galapagos is also an example of Services Research, i.e., research for
IT services providers, which is a new and growing area in industrial
research.
