1. A system associated with enterprise information, comprising:
a central cloud-based enterprise data repository containing consolidated facts about enterprise applications; and
a discovery engine coupled to the cloud-based enterprise data repository, including:
a computer processor, and
a computer memory coupled to the computer processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the discovery engine to:
(i) execute discovery in a local application process,
(ii) based on the executed discovery, automatically create a generic structured set of facts from locally accessible data, and
(iii) store the generic structured set of facts in the central cloud-based enterprise data repository using a standard format,
wherein an automated Machine Learning (“ML”) agent evaluates information from the central cloud-based enterprise data repository and a user generated query is created in a query language and executed to automatically generate an answer which is stored in the central cloud-based enterprise data repository as a fact that can be referenced by other queries to enable a flexible hierarchy.
