Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for efficient generation and maintenance of interface components in an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) environment. A system may receive a request to display a dashboard of components. A declarative metadata set of components is generated and a multi-use agent to parse the declarative metadata set. The multi-use agent may be replicated according to the parsed declarative definition in order to create multiple instances of the multi-use agent corresponding to the one or more determined interface components. The multiple instances of the multi-use agent may then generate and maintain the interface components in real-time. Component generation may be distributed among systems to prevent excessive data transfers and wasteful communications.
