Generally speaking, systems, methods and media for managing an application
usage metering system are disclosed. Embodiments of the method may
include initiating discovery agents for one or more server resources and
interrogating by the discovery agents the one or more server resources to
discover a plurality of discrete server processes and associated
discovery data for each process. Embodiments may also include collecting
discovery data for the discovered discrete server processes in a
centralized repository and mapping one or more of the processes to an
application and a customer based on the collected discovery data. Further
embodiments may also include performing an administrative function based
on the mapped discrete server processes, such as generating a customer
bill, generating a report based on the mapped discrete server processes,
assigning a customer to a process, or changing a status of a discrete
server process.
