  • Patent number: 11973647
    Abstract: A method may include validating an execution plan specifying one or more configurations to apply to an information technology infrastructure. The execution plan may be validated by at least determining a structural validity of the configurations of the execution plan. In response to the configurations of the execution plan being determined to be structurally valid, the validation of the execution plan may further include determining whether the information technology infrastructure satisfies a policy if the configurations specified in the execution plan are applied to the information technology infrastructure. In response to a successful validation of the execution plan, the one or more configurations specified in the execution plan may be applied to the information technology infrastructure by at least provisioning, modifying, and/or de-provisioning one or more resources at the information technology infrastructure.

  • Patent number: 11907767
    Abstract: A cost estimator system receives a plan, a configuration or proposed changes for a cloud-based infrastructure, and which include data representing one or more computing resources needed for a cloud-based application. A new configuration is generated for the cloud-based infrastructure incorporating the plan, configuration or proposed changes. A price resolver resolves a price of the resources that are part of the new configuration, and requests, from one or more cloud providers associated with the new configuration, price data for the resolved resources. The cost estimator system then generates, based on the price data received by the price resolver, a cost estimate for the new configuration of the cloud-based infrastructure.

  • Patent number: 11863389
    Abstract: A method for managing an information technology infrastructure is provided. The method may include generating a workspace configured to maintain configurations for the information technology infrastructure. A configuration file specifying configurations to apply to the information technology infrastructure may be merged into the workspace. An execution plan may be generated based on the workspace. The execution plan may include operations to apply, to the information technology infrastructure, the configurations specified in the configuration file. The configurations may be applied, based on the execution plan, by at least provisioning, modifying, and/or de-provisioning one or more resources at the information technology infrastructure. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230421489
    Abstract: A discovery and routing service may generate a URL related to an application to be deployed to a cloud computing platforms, the URL providing access to an edge list containing one or more edge nodes. The discovery and routing service may connect at least one agent to the URL. The discovery and routing service may send authentication information to the agent, including an identifier related to the agent, and a set of agent labels. The discovery and routing service may insert, after authentication by the edge node, the authentication information into a routing mesh. The discovery and routing service may locate the agent, in response to a request, based on a comparison between the set of request labels and a set of agent labels. The discovery and routing service may connect the located agent with traffic to and from the routing mesh.

  • Publication number: 20230221954
    Abstract: A computing device may access a hierarchical tree structure defining a data model for a workflow tool. The workflow tool being configured for building, deploying and releasing application code of an application to one or more cloud computing platforms. The hierarchical tree structure having a plurality of nodes that store data related to the application code. The computing device may receive a request to add a projects-child node associated with a code repository to the hierarchical tree structure. The computing device may add the projects-child node to the hierarchy as a child node of the identified organization-parent node. The projects-child node can be configured to support one or more dependent child nodes depending from the projects-child node. The dependent child nodes can include at least one of an applications-child node, a builds-child node, a deployments-child node, an artifacts-child node, or a releases-child node.

  • Publication number: 20230208746
    Abstract: A method for cross datacenter service-to-service communication over a shortest network route using mesh gateways. A mesh gateway receives a protocol message from a first service directed to a second service, identifies destination information associated with the second service, recognizes a routing configuration for routing the protocol message, determines a network route based on the routing configuration, and forwards the protocol message to another gateway associated with the second service over the determined network route.

  • Publication number: 20220413844
    Abstract: A workflow tool to build, deploy and release application code of an application to any of one or more cloud computing platforms. The workflow tool is executed by one or more processors to generate a single configuration file for the application, the single configuration file comprising, using a common command-line interface (CLI) language: a build configuration defining a build tool used for building the application; a deploy configuration defining a cloud computing platform to which the application will be deployed; and a release configuration defining logic for releasing the application to one or more users of the cloud computing platform. The workflow tool further includes a release uniform resource locator (URL) generated by the first processor, the release URL providing access, by the cloud computing platform to the one or more users, to the application upon the releasing.

  • Publication number: 20220405146
    Abstract: A cost estimator system receives a plan, a configuration or proposed changes for a cloud-based infrastructure, and which include data representing one or more computing resources needed for a cloud-based application. A new configuration is generated for the cloud-based infrastructure incorporating the plan, configuration or proposed changes. A price resolver resolves a price of the resources that are part of the new configuration, and requests, from one or more cloud providers associated with the new configuration, price data for the resolved resources. The cost estimator system then generates, based on the price data received by the price resolver, a cost estimate for the new configuration of the cloud-based infrastructure.

  • Publication number: 20220382590
    Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a method of creating and managing mappings between cloud based resources and cloud provider accounts. Specifically, the present disclosure presents a method executed by a centralized service for acquiring account credentials associated with a cloud provider account from a cloud provider. The centralized service is further configured to receive a request to allocate account credentials to a network resources. After receiving the request, the centralized service generates a mapping of the cloud provider account with the network resource based at least in part on the acquired account credentials of the cloud provider account. Finally, the centralized service returns the mapping based on the cloud provider account.

  • Publication number: 20210328864
    Abstract: A method for generating a configuration file for configuring an information technology infrastructure is provided. The method may include receiving, from a first user at a first client, a first indication to publish an infrastructure module comprising a set of configurations to apply to an information technology infrastructure. The infrastructure module may be stored in a module registry in response to the first indication. A second indication selecting the infrastructure module may be received from a second user at a second client. In response to the second indication, the infrastructure module may be sent from the module registry to the second client for insertion into a configuration file being created at the second client. The insertion of the infrastructure module may incorporate, into configuration file, the set of configurations to apply to the information technology infrastructure. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.
