  • Patent number: 10652083
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for provisioning computer code in a cloud computing system is implemented. A computer code file may be received at a server from a first additional computer device. A metabase of metadata may be built by a second additional computer device in response to the first additional computer device uploading the computer code file to the server. The metadata may be based upon the computer code file and may describe one or more dependencies of the computer code file. One or more provisioning conditions may be received at the second additional computer device. Based upon the provisioning conditions and the metadata, in response to the first additional computer device executing instructions to initiate provisioning of the computer code file, the computer code file may be sent to a plurality of cloud computing system nodes so as to provision the computer code in the cloud computing system.

  • Patent number: 9547670
    Abstract: A method and apparatus may provision a new computer code file as an update or a new application for end nodes of a cloud computing system. The method and apparatus may receive a computer code file at a repository server via a portal interface to an automation service. The computer code file may include a discrete file or package of files corresponding to a complete application or an update for an application for execution on cloud computing system nodes. The method and apparatus may also receive provisioning conditions at the automation service via the portal interface, send the computer code file to the cloud computing system end nodes based on the received provisioning conditions, and cause the sent computer code file to be installed on each of the plurality of cloud computing system end nodes.
