  • Patent number: 9141423
    Abstract: A Datacenter Management Service (DMS) is provided as a platform designed to automate datacenter management tasks that are performed across multiple technology silos and datacenter servers or collections of servers. The infrastructure to perform the automation is provided by integrating heterogeneous task providers and implementations into a set of standardized adapters through dependency inversion. A platform automating datacenter management tasks may include three main components: integration of adapters into an interface allowing a common interface for datacenter task execution, an execution platform that works against the adapters, and implementation of the adapters for a given type of datacenter management task.
    Type: Grant
