While the technology aims to optimize configuration costs, what is the overall impact on the total development costs of a software project?
Original Abstract Submitted
techniques are described herein that are capable of providing a development-time configuration change recommendation using deployment templates. during development of a software program, a proposed configuration of the software program is identified. a reference configuration defined by a reference template is determined based on a similarity between the proposed configuration and the reference configuration. a determination is made that the proposed configuration has an attribute having a first value corresponding to a first cost. a determination is made that the reference configuration has the attribute having a second value corresponding to a second cost. during the development of the software program, an action is performed, including causing a recommendation to be provided via a user interface, based at least on the second cost being less than the first cost. the recommendation recommends changing the attribute of the proposed configuration to have the second value in lieu of the first value.
