Abstract

A distributed computing system is provided, and configured to execute a domain name service (DNS) log analyzer configured to identify a dependency of a first service executed on a first VM at a first server, on a second service executed on a second VM at a second server, via one or more DNS logs of a DNS server. The system is further configured to execute an authentication log analyzer configured to identify a dependency of the first service on a third service executed at a third server, via the one or more token authentication logs of an authentication server. The system is further configured to execute a dependency map generator configured to generate a service-to-service dependency map including the dependency between the first service and the second service, and the dependency between the first service and third service.
