==SIMULATION OF ONE OR MORE PIPELINE JOBS IN A SOFTWARE DEPLOYMENT PIPELINE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18077761 titled 'SIMULATION OF ONE OR MORE PIPELINE JOBS IN A SOFTWARE DEPLOYMENT PIPELINE

'''Simplified Explanation:'''
The patent application describes techniques for simulating pipeline jobs in a software deployment pipeline. This involves generating a simulated version of a virtualized computing resource associated with the pipeline job and executing at least a portion of the pipeline job in this simulated environment.

* **Obtaining user request to simulate a pipeline job**
* **Processing configuration file to identify virtualized computing resource image**
* **Generating executable script for the pipeline job**
* **Simulating the virtualized computing resource using the identified image**
* **Executing part of the pipeline job in the simulated environment**
* **Obtaining results from the execution in the simulated environment**

'''Potential Applications:'''
This technology can be applied in software development and deployment processes to test and validate pipeline jobs before actual deployment, ensuring smooth and error-free operations.

'''Problems Solved:'''
- Allows for simulation of pipeline jobs to identify and address potential issues before deployment
- Provides a controlled environment for testing without affecting production systems

'''Benefits:'''
- Reduces the risk of errors and failures in software deployment
- Improves the efficiency of the deployment process by identifying issues early on
- Enhances overall reliability and performance of software systems

'''Commercial Applications:'''
The technology can be utilized by software development companies, IT departments, and cloud service providers to streamline their deployment processes and ensure the quality of software releases.

'''Prior Art:'''
There may be existing technologies related to simulation and testing in software development pipelines, but this specific approach of simulating virtualized computing resources for pipeline jobs may be a novel innovation.

'''Frequently Updated Research:'''
Stay updated on advancements in virtualization technologies, software deployment practices, and simulation tools to enhance the effectiveness of this technique.

'''Questions about Simulation of Pipeline Jobs:'''
1. How does simulating pipeline jobs help in improving software deployment processes?
2. What are the key components of the simulation environment for pipeline jobs?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Techniques are provided for simulation of pipeline jobs in a software deployment pipeline. One method comprises obtaining a request from a user to simulate a pipeline job of a software deployment pipeline; processing a configuration file associated with the pipeline job to identify an image for a virtualized computing resource associated with the pipeline job; generating an executable script for the pipeline job using the configuration file associated with the pipeline job; initiating a generation of a simulated version of the virtualized computing resource in a simulated environment using the image for the virtualized computing resource associated with the pipeline job; initiating an execution of at least a portion of the pipeline job in the simulated version of the virtualized computing resource; and obtaining one or more results from the execution of the at least one pipeline job in the simulated version of the virtualized computing resource.
