Patent number: 9354940Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for implementing a tenant provisioning system in a multi-tenancy architecture using a single provisioning master in the architecture, and a data center provisioner in each data center in the architecture. The provisioning master receives user requests to provision a tenant of a service and routes such requests to an appropriate data center provisioner. Each service in the multi-tenancy architecture implements a common interface by which the corresponding data center provisioner can obtain a common indication of load from each different service deployed in the data center thus facilitating the selection of a scale unit on which a tenant is provisioned. The common interface also enables a service to dynamically register (i.e. without redeploying the tenant provisioning system) with the provisioning master as a multi-tenancy service by registering an endpoint address with the provisioning master.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2012Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Nagalinga Durga Prasad Sripathi Panditharadhya, Markus Horstmann, Girish Nagaraja, Clemens Friedrich Vasters, David Wortendyke

Patent number: 8225308Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for managing software lifecycle. Based on declarative models and knowledge of their interpretation, embodiments of the present invention facilitate lifecycle management for model-based software applications. Lifecycle models, such as, for example, lifecycle state machine models are stored in a shared repository such that executive services can determine how software application lifecycles are to be managed and transitioned. Software lifecycle activities can verify that a transition is possible and identify any errors preventing a lifecycle transition. Model-based error handling and error recovery mechanisms can be used to correct any identified errors.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2007Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Igor Sedukhin, Daniel Eshner, Erik B.

Patent number: 8087015Abstract: A distributed application deployment engine uses declarative deployment data that describes deployment characteristics for application modules, and potential target environments. The engine uses the deployment data to potentially match a module to a deployment target. At some point, the modules may then be actually deployed on the identified deployment target. This may be performed for multiple modules in the distributed application, thereby deploying the distributed application in a distributed environment.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2007Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vladimir Pogrebinsky, Benjamin George Johnson, Nagalinga Durga Prasad Sripathi Panditharadhya, Udaya Kumar Bhaskara, Daniel Eshner

Patent number: 8046692Abstract: An interactive user interface for displaying mappings between modules of a distributed application and deployment targets in a distributed environment. The user interface represents module items, deployment target items, and correlation items that represent various mappings of module items to deployment target items. In some cases, the manner in which each of these items is displayed may be altered in response to user input. The correlation itself may also be potentially altered in response to user input. Multiple solutions may be displayed in which there are different mappings of modules to target solutions.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2007Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vladimir Pogrebinsky, Benjamin George Johnson, Nagalinga Durga Prasad Sripathi Panditharadhya, Udaya Kumar Bhaskara

Patent number: 8024396Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for distributed behavior controlled execution of modeled applications. Embodiments of the invention facilitate the interoperation of a central data store along with various peer-to-peer functionalities. Thus, distributed applications can be executed in an environment that utilizes advantages of both a central data store and peer-to-peer messaging. A read-only portion of a centralized data store can be used to provide some behavior control over various processing systems during execution of a distributed software application. Thus, embodiments of the invention can be used to form a policy-driven collective of nodes forming a distributed, decentralized run-time for model-based applications. Utilizing a cooperating collective of nodes that comply with centralized polices and execute applications over a peer-to-peer fabric permits a distributed application runtime to accommodate distribution and decentralization on a large scale.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2007Date of Patent: September 20, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Igor Sedukhin, Daniel Eshner, Steve Swartz, Udaya Kumar Bhaskara, Nagalinga Durga Prasad Sripathi Panditharadhya, Amol Sudhakar Kulkarni, Haoran Andy Wu, Mariusz Gerard Borsa, Michael Oliver Neary

Patent number: 8018471Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed that merge components on a design surface. The system receives input from a user to add components or clauses to a design surface and analyzes the components to determine if some of the components can be merged. If the system identifies components that can be merged, then the system merges the identified components to reduce the number of components present on the design surface. The system determines that some components can be merged if the components meet the same criteria, such as having components that are equivalent and that have the same number of incoming paths or the same number of outgoing paths. The system provides a visual indicator on the design surface to indicate that components are being merged. The system provides an undo feature to allow the user to undo the component merging when desired.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2006Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Nagalinga Durga Prasad Sripathi Panditharadhya, John Edward Churchill, Udaya Kumar Bhaskara

Patent number: 7926070Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for performing requested commands for model-based applications. Embodiments of the invention permit efficient implementation of operations for model-based applications. Since drivers that are to implement an operation request data for implementing the operation, embodiments significantly reduce the likelihood of superfluous data being exchanged between an executive service and drivers. Further, if an operation is interrupted before implementation is complete, the operation can be resumed without having to re-perform already completed portions of the operation. Additionally, a user can be regularly updated on the progress of their commands.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2007Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Igor Sedukhin, Daniel Eshner, Erik B.
