Abstract
A system may contain a computational instance including persistent storage that maintains a discovery pattern and credentials for a cloud-based service, where the cloud-based service provides a remote computing infrastructure. The system may also contain one or more processors configured to: remotely access, using the credentials, the cloud-based service; execute the discovery pattern to obtain copies of tags configured in the cloud-based service, where the tags each include key fields, value fields, and resource identifier fields, and where the resource identifier fields uniquely specify respective computational resources of the cloud-based service; associate the tags that were discovered to configuration item representations of the respective computational resources; and store, in the persistent storage, the tags and their associations to the configuration item representations.
