Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method stored on computer readable non-transitory media, comprising: receiving messages at an extraction engine from managed infrastructure that includes managed infrastructure physical hardware that supports the flow and processing of information; producing events that relate to the managed infrastructure; providing a sigalizer engine that includes one or more of an NMF engine, a k-means clustering engine and a topology proximity engine; using the sigalizer engine to determine one or more common characteristics of one or more events; using the signalizer engine with the NMF engine, the k-means clustering engine and the topology proximity engine to produce clusters of events relating to a failure or errors in the managed infrastructure, the topology proximity engine using a source address for each event and a graph topology of the managed infrastructure which represents node to node connectivity of the topology proximity engine and assigns a graph coordinate to the event with an optional subset of attributes being extracted for each event and turned into a vector, the topology engine inputting a list of devices and a list a connections between components or nodes in the managed infrastructure; using membership in a cluster to determine a common factor of the events that is a failure or an actionable problem in the physical hardware managed infrastructure directed to supporting the flow and processing of information; in response to the production of the clusters making one or more proposed physical hardware changes in a managed infrastructure hardware; accessing one or more data fields within a file directed to the one or more proposed physical hardware changes in a managed infrastructure hardware; mapping on a display computer system accessed one or more proposed physical hardware changes in a managed infrastructure hardware; and displaying on the display computer system a dashboard of the display computer system configured to generate a dashboard display from a configuration in the file that includes one or more proposed physical hardware changes in a managed infrastructure hardware.
