Abstract
A method and system for cataloging network objects in a cloud environment are presented. The system includes collecting at least network object data on a plurality of network objects operable in a cloud environment, wherein the plurality of network objects are operable at different layers of the cloud environment; identifying the plurality of network objects operable in the cloud environment; constructing at least a network graph based on the identified network objects; determining relationships between the identified network objects in the at least a network graph; generating at least an insight for least one of the identified network objects, wherein the insight is generated in response to the network graph and the determined relationships; and tagging each of the plurality of network objects for which an insight is generated.
