Abstract: An application-centric modernization and migration (AMM) architecture delivers AMM as a service to enterprises to automate migrating applications to new environments. In this regard, the architecture implements data migration functionality in concert with application code migration, environment provisioning, and post-migration configuration. The joint migration of application data and application code effectively provides a complete migration of an application. The architecture may also define and deliver a GUI portal through which an application owner provides application-specific metadata to drive the AMM.

Abstract: An application-centric continuous delivery (ACCID) architecture provides a service that automates the configuration and management of end-to-end application lifecycle management (ALM) tools, through an innovative application-centric metadata model that can be customized through a self-service portal. With the ACCID architecture, IT organizations can provide version management, build automation, test automation, artifact management, infrastructure build, and automated application deployment that is consistent with global IT policy and governance and delivered as a service to organizations. The ACCID architecture references customized application metadata models that describe the application services, ALM requirements, and target infrastructure, to employ end-to-end automation of: the software deployment lifecycle and promotion across application environments, e.g., Development, Test, Pre-Production, and Production environments, using private, public, or hybrid cloud deployment models.

Abstract: A system for managing the operation of different components within a cloud system to accomplish various tasks, including the implementation of build features within the cloud system to achieve specific operational goals. The system may include a data defined infrastructure (DDI) tool installed within a data defined infrastructure (DDI) to manage certain features or tasks within the cloud system. The DDI may include an environment configuration database (ECDB), an orchestration engine, an automation engine, and/or other hardware and software components within the cloud system, such that the DDI tool installed on the DDI infrastructure may control operation of the ECDB, the orchestration engine, the automation engine, or other hardware and software components within the cloud system based on a set of data that fully describes the operational goal.
