Abstract

In some examples, a server may receive telemetry data from a computing device. The server may determine based at least in part on the telemetry data, (1) a device (e.g., hardware and software) configuration associated with the computing device and (2) one or more events (e.g., an installation log, a memory dump, or the like) associated with installing a software package on the computing device. Based at least in part on the one or more events. the server may determine a stability index associated with the software package and associate the stability index with the device configuration. The stability index may indicate a probability of errors not occurring after the software package is installed. After determining that the stability index satisfies a predetermined threshold, the server may provide the software package and the associated stability index for download to one or more additional computing devices.
