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.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing automated retries during orchestration of a datacenter on a cloud platform. Generating an orchestration workflow for the datacenter may include generating an aggregate pipeline for the orchestration. The aggregate pipeline includes instances of datacenter entity pipelines that include stages for provisioning and deployment of datacenter entities. The disclosed techniques include adding retry stages to the datacenter entity pipelines that are automatically invoked in the event of failure of a datacenter entity pipeline. The retry stages are placed at the end of individual datacenter entity pipelines and conditional expressions are included that invoke retry strategies defined by owners of the datacenter entity.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing an incremental update to an existing datacenter on a cloud platform. The datacenter may have been built on a cloud platform according to a declarative specification that describes dependencies between datacenter entities in the datacenter. When an update is requested for the datacenter (e.g., by a customer or other entity), the system determines datacenter entities that are being changed in association with the update and execution dependencies associated with the update request. The system then initiates execution of the execution dependences and waits for the execution dependencies to be completed. Once the execution dependencies are completed, the system initiates orchestration of the datacenter in order to update the datacenter on the cloud platform with the addition or removal of datacenter entities on the datacenter.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing an end-to-end orchestration for a datacenter on a cloud platform. A datacenter may be orchestrated on a cloud platform according to a declarative specification that describes dependences between datacenter entities (e.g., services) in the datacenter. Some datacenter entities may execution dependencies, which include activities, steps, or events that need to be completed for the datacenter entities to be ready for orchestration. Accordingly, in order for an orchestration workflow to be able to execute from beginning to end without interruption, all the execution dependencies for all the datacenter entities in the orchestration workflow need to be completed. The techniques disclosed include automatically initiating execution of the execution dependencies and waiting for indications that the execution activities are completed before executing the orchestration workflow.

Abstract: A multi-cluster computing system which includes a query result caching system is presented. The multi-cluster computing system may include a data processing service and client devices communicatively coupled over a network. The data processing service may include a control layer and a data layer. The control layer may be configured to receive and process requests from the client devices and manage resources in the data layer. The data layer may be configured to include instances of clusters of computing resources for executing jobs. The data layer may include a data storage system, which further includes a remote query result cache Store. The query result cache store may include a cloud storage query result cache which stores data associated with results of previously executed requests. As such, when a cluster encounters a previously executed request, the cluster may efficiently retrieve the cached result of the request from the in-memory query result cache or the cloud storage query result cache.
