Abstract

Aspects of the technology provide solutions for determining a time period (“epoch”) required to monitor or analyze a tenant network. Some implementations of the technology include a process for making automatic epoch determinations, which includes steps for identifying one or more network parameters for a tenant network, analyzing the tenant network using the network parameters to discover one or more configuration settings of the tenant network, and determining a first epoch for the tenant network, the first epoch corresponding with a period of time to complete analysis of the tenant network using the network parameters. In some aspects, the process can further include steps for generating a tenant profile for the tenant network, the tenant profile based on the network parameters, the first epoch, and the one or more configuration settings of the tenant network. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
