  • Publication number: 20240036929
    Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems deploy software artifacts in datacenters created in a cloud platform. The system receives multiple version maps. Each version map provides version information for a particular context associated with the datacenter. The context may specify a target environment, a target datacenter entity, or a target action to be performed on the cloud platform. The system generates an aggregate pipeline comprising a hierarchy of pipelines. The system generates an aggregate version map associating datacenter entities of the datacenter with versions of software artifacts targeted for deployment on the datacenter entities and versions of pipelines. The system executes the aggregate pipeline in conjunction with the aggregate version map to perform requested operations on the datacenter configured on the cloud platform, for example, provisioning resources or deploying services.

  • Patent number: 11868750
    Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems deploy software artifacts in data centers created in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system receives a declarative specification for creating a datacenter on a cloud platform. The system generates an aggregate pipeline comprising a hierarchy of pipelines. The system generates an aggregate deployment version map associating data center entities of the data center with versions of software artifacts targeted for deployment on the datacenter entities. The system collects a set of software artifacts according to the aggregate deployment version map. The system executes the aggregate pipeline in conjunction with the aggregate deployment version map to create the datacenter in accordance with the cloud platform independent declarative specification.

  • Patent number: 11570048
    Abstract: A system is presented for provisioning resources on a target cloud platform based on a platform-independent specification of a data center. The system identifies data center entities represented within the platform-independent declarative specification and generates data structures and metadata representations of the data center entities. The system then generates instructions for provisioning services or deploying applications for creating one or more services on the target cloud platform based on the data structures and metadata representations of the data center entities according to the declarative specification. The system sends the generated instructions for execution on the target cloud computing platform, where the target cloud computing platform executes the instructions to generate the data center. The system provides users with access to the computing resources of the data center created by the cloud computing platform.

  • Publication number: 20220147399
    Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems create data centers in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system receives a cloud platform independent declarative specification describing a new datacenter to be created or modifications to an existing datacenter deployed on a cloud platform. The system compiles the cloud platform independent declarative specification to generate a metadata representation of the data center. If the datacenter is existing, the system generates a metadata representation representing modifications to the datacenter to obtain a desired datacenter. The system sends the metadata representation and a set of instructions for execution on a target cloud platform. The target cloud platform executes the instructions to configure the data center. The system provides users with access to the computing resources of the data center configured by the target cloud platform.
