Abstract: An automated power on notification system includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions thereon. The system further includes a processor connected to the non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for detecting a failure to establish a connection with a newly powered on component. The processor is further configured to instruct a transmitter to transmit a periodic timer signal to the newly powered on component, wherein the periodic timer signal indicates a time period for the newly powered on component to wait prior to repeating an attempt to connect to a network. The processor is further configured to receive a connection request from the newly powered on component after the time period has elapsed. The processor is further configured to establish a connection between the newly powered on component and the network.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving an application manifest file from an application; mapping application manifest file parameters from the application manifest file to an IP manager; determining services available based on the mapped application manifest file parameters; and deploying the application on one or more virtual machines (VMs) or one or more containers.
