Abstract
Information from a variety of different sources may be used to enrich information about an object retrieved from a computing device/instance associated with a computing network (or web service provider). The additional information from the different sources provides to a user a more comprehensive set of information that may not be easily found (or even available) via sources associated with the computing network. As such, the additional information is beneficial in assisting users in making decisions regarding the purchase, licensing, and use of different objects (e.g. software, hardware, web services) associated with the computing network.
