Abstract
A system and method to manage configuration of an information system comprises an automated risk evaluation for a requested change of a configuration item in an information system. Change history information indicative of the effects of multiple historical changes to respective configuration items may accessed, and the automated risk evaluation may be based at least in part on the change history information. The requested change may be authorized or as part based on an assessment of a risk value which is calculated in the automated risk evaluation. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are described.
