COMPUTING SYSTEM SIMULATION AND TESTING ENVIRONMENT

Methods, systems and computer program products are described herein that enable executing simulation scenarios against a computing system simulation model to determine one or more appropriate modifications to a physical, operating computing system. The simulation model includes virtual components corresponding to a plurality of computing system components of the computing system. The virtual components of the simulation model are included in a graph database, and the virtual components correspond to one or more nodes and edges stored as a graph in the graph database. Execution of the simulation scenario produces a simulation result that is analyzed to determine at least one modification of the computing system, and where thereafter, the computing system is modified at least according to the determined modification. Embodiments also enable testing a physical computing system to determine whether the simulation model of the computing system is accurate, and/or to determine one or more computing system modifications.
