Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved approach to implement a management infrastructure for computing environments. The user interfaces for local management nodes are cached at a central management node. The cached copies of the local node UIs can then be executed as if the user was actually operating from the local node.

Abstract: Systems for distributed data storage. A user accesses a user interface in a distributed virtualization system comprising computing nodes that support virtualized controllers that include preconfigured APIs to receive application extension modules. The system receives a user command from a user interface at the virtualized controller, the user command corresponding to a download request for at least one application extension. A successful download and integration event causes integration of the containerized application extension into the system. The additional functionality of the containerized application extension is offered to the user. The user can address additional functionality of the containerized application extension through a user interface.

Abstract: Systems for dynamically generating user interfaces. A method embodiment commences upon receiving one or more requests for a user interface view corresponding to a particular type of computing resource entity. A set of resource property templates are examined to identifying one or more resource properties that correspond to the particular type of computing resource entity. Processing is invoked to determine the then-current resource state(s) of the computing resource entity. Based on the then-current resource state(s) of the particular type of computing resource entity, user interface code is dynamically generated. The dynamically generated user interface code is used to render a user interface view on the requester's display. The rendered user interface view comprises one or more of the resource properties and at least one aspect of the dynamically-determined then-current resource state(s) that correspond to the one or more resource properties.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing device receives user input from a client device. The user input corresponds to a request for a task to be performed by each entity of a set of entities from a virtualization environment. The request for the task is sent to the set of entities. The computing device receives feedback from each entity of the set of entities. The feedback corresponds to the progress of each entity's individual task for the request. The computing device aggregates the feedback from the set of entities into a single parent task, and sends only the reference to the parent task to the client device for display.
