Abstract: Methods and apparatus to implement post-provisioning tasks are disclosed. An example apparatus comprising memory, instructions, and programmable circuitry to be programmed by the instructions to obtain metadata associated with a post-provisioning task, the post-provisioning task to modify a plugin, the plugin to provide a capability to a cloud resource of a computing platform provider, the metadata represented in accordance with a first file format, transform the metadata from the first file format to a second file format, the second file format compatible with the plugin, and register the post-provisioning task in a deployment environment provided by the computing platform provider.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to manage cloud computing resources are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for provisioning cloud infrastructure resources, the apparatus comprising: resource bundling circuitry to select cloud infrastructure resources to bundle as a virtual private zone; provisioning circuitry to provision the cloud infrastructure resources; and allocation circuitry to allocate the virtual private zone to a first tenant, the first tenant authorized to access the cloud infrastructure resources bundled in the virtual private zone.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to devices, systems, and methods for virtual infrastructure provisioning on government compliant and non-compliant endpoints based on configuration. One embodiment includes receiving a request made by a user to provision a catalog item in a cloud computing environment, determining that the user is assigned to a project required to comply with governmental requirements concerning virtual infrastructure, selecting a cloud zone of a cloud region in which to provision the catalog item, wherein the cloud region is configured to provide compliance with the governmental requirements, and deploying the provisioned catalog item in the selected cloud zone.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to devices, systems, and methods for placement in a virtualized computing environment based on resource allocation. One embodiment includes instructions to receive a request made by a customer to create a virtual computing instance (VCI) of a project in cloud computing environment and place the VCI.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for provisioning cloud infrastructure resources, the apparatus comprising: resource bundling circuitry to select cloud infrastructure resources to bundle as a virtual private zone; provisioning circuitry to provision the cloud infrastructure resources; and allocation circuitry to allocate the virtual private zone to a first tenant, the first tenant authorized to access the cloud infrastructure resources bundled in the virtual private zone.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to devices, systems, and methods for selectively preventing resource overallocation in a virtualized computing environment. One example includes instructions to receive a request to prevent overallocation of a resource in a software-defined datacenter associated with a customer, determine an amount of the resource available to the customer, and assign a respective portion of the amount of the resource available to the customer to each of a plurality of virtual computing instances (VCIs) irrespective of a power state of each of the plurality of VCIs.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to provide tenant aware runtime feature toggling in a cloud or other virtualized computing environment are disclosed. An example method includes determining a feature toggle associated with a resource of a provisioning request; retrieving the feature toggle from a database using a first tenant identifier, the feature toggle to have a first value for the first tenant identifier and a second value for a second tenant identifier; processing the feature toggle to provision the resource according to the first value of the feature toggle; and facilitating provisioning of the resource according to the first value.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed to deploying a distributed system using operating system or container virtualization. An example apparatus includes a management container including a configuration manager and a container manager. The example configuration manager to is receive an instruction for a desired deployment state and is to apply a first change to a first current deployment state of the management container based on the desired deployment state. The example container manager is to apply a second change to a second current deployment state of a deployed container based on the desired deployment state. The container manager is to return information indicative of the desired deployment state to the configuration manager when the second change from the second current deployment state to the desired deployment state is achieved.
