Abstract

A computing device receives a request for a service level agreement (SLA) that indicates a specific combination of services and service levels selected from a group of available services and available service levels. The computing device generates an SLA identifier for the specific combination of services and service levels, and determines if the SLA identifier matches one of a group of stored SLA identifiers. The computing device generates a new SLA based on the specific combination of services and service levels when the SLA identifier does not match one of the group of stored SLA identifiers, and assigns an existing SLA, corresponding to one of the group of stored SLA identifiers, when the SLA identifier matches one of the group of stored SLA identifiers.
