Surviving the “Perfect Storm”

Symptoms Automation Framework An information model

Describing, recognizing, and reacting to multi-domain problems/opportunities

Enabling vendors, integrators, and organizations to codify their best practices

And SHARE them in a machine readable and interoperable way

Solution: SAF Model Symptom - A Symptom is the indicator that a situation is

present in the system. Symptoms represent the dynamic state of the system.

Syndrome - A Syndrome is an identifiable collection of zero or more related Symptoms (as identified by a signature).

Protocol - A Protocol is the treatment-regimen, providing the template necessary to create a Prescription.

Prescription - A Prescription is an instance corresponding to a Protocol. It is used to provide remediation, diagnostics, preventative measures, or optimization to be performed.
