Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and devices for providing computer implemented services using managed systems are disclosed. To provide the computer implemented services, the managed systems may need to operate in a predetermined manner conducive to, for example, execution of applications that provide the computer implemented services. Similarly, the managed system may need access to certain hardware resources and software resources to provide the desired computer implemented services. To improve the likelihood of the computer implemented services being provided, the managed devices may be managed using a subscription based model. The subscription model may utilize a highly accessible service to facilitate system management. To facilitate system management, the highly available service may take into account both historic use of managed systems and changes to subscriptions to ascertain point in time when subscription limits may be reached. The identified points in time may be used to drive management decisions.
