Abstract: A processing device receives a first cluster management operation request, wherein the first cluster management operation request is for a deployment operation of a first cluster and comprises a cluster template, a specified number of nodes to deploy and a configuration. The processing device determines a plurality of constraints from at least one of the cluster template or the configuration. The processing device deterministically solves for and outputs a first cluster layout comprising the specified number of nodes, each of the specified number of nodes comprising a hardware type, an image type and one or more services, wherein the first cluster layout satisfies the plurality of constraints.

Abstract: A processing device executing a provisioner requests a node level task from a server. The processing device receives an assignment of a first node level task, wherein the first node level task is associated with a cluster management operation for a first cluster. The processing device determines a first plugin capable of performing the first node level task from a plurality of plugins, wherein each of the plurality of plugins comprises a self-contained program for performing a specific set of node level tasks. The processing device performs the first node level task by the first plugin, wherein the first node level task is an operation on a remote target host that does not include software associated with the provisioner. The processing device reports a result of the node level task to the server.

Abstract: A processing device receives a starting cluster layout for a first cluster, a target cluster layout for the first cluster, and a cluster management operation for creating or modifying the first cluster. The processing device determines a plurality of node level tasks to transition the first cluster from the starting cluster layout to the target cluster layout, determines dependencies between the plurality of node level tasks, and determines an order for the plurality of node level tasks based on the cluster management operation and the dependencies. The processing device then creates an execution plan that divides the cluster management operation into the plurality of node level tasks in the determined order.
