Abstract:
An application awareness system for a virtualized infrastructure. The application awareness system may use commands in standardized protocols to obtain data from virtual entities in the virtualized infrastructure. The data may be processed to indicate applications on specific virtual entities. The application awareness system may interact with those applications to gain information about the configuration of the application, or for a distributed application, components of the application on each of the plurality of virtual entities. These techniques may be applied to both virtual machines and containers, generating data that may be used in any of multiple management functions performed on the virtual infrastructure, such as backup, monitoring and resource allocation.

Claim (Index 9):
A computer-implemented method for gathering information about a virtual infrastructure comprising a plurality of virtual entities, the method comprising:\n executing a protocol associated with an operating system of a virtual entity of the plurality of virtual entities to establish a control path via an interface of the operating system; accessing, via the control path, first data associated with one or more applications; determining, from the first data, that a particular application is installed on the virtual entity; triggering, via the control path, execution of program instructions at the virtual entity based on the determined particular application; receiving second data from the virtual entity generated based on execution of the program instructions at the virtual entity; determining, based on the second data, a configuration of the particular application on the virtual entity; and outputting to a virtual infrastructure management system, the configuration information.
