Abstract

A decision system and methods for providing customized deployment architectures that take into account the importance of various cloud resources. The decision system can monitor the applications and processes executed in the cloud, and collect utilization information identifying the cloud resources used, the amount of usage, and trends in usage. Resource importance data can then be obtained from the utilization information and/or from other sources, such as a system user. The decision system can then generate customized deployment architectures based on the collected utilization information and the resource importance data.
