Claim:
1. A method comprising: comparing, by a server processing system, a current software topology detailing at least one characteristic of user equipment at a deployment site to a software deployment topology detailing at least one characteristic required to deploy an application; identifying, by the server processing system, a mismatch between the current software topology and the software deployment topology before deployment of the application is attempted at the deployment site, wherein the mismatch identifies a problem of the current software topology that is currently preventing the deployment of the application; and generating, by the server processing system, an action plan based on the mismatch, wherein the action plan resolves the mismatch between the current software topology and the software deployment topology by a change to an adequate characteristic needed to successfully deploy the application from a presently existing deficient and normally operating characteristic of the user equipment at the deployment site identified as the problem of the current software topology that prevents the successful deployment of the application if the change is not made in the user equipment.
