STANDARDIZED FORMAT FOR CONTAINERIZED APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18604887 titled 'STANDARDIZED FORMAT FOR CONTAINERIZED APPLICATIONS
The abstract describes a standardized file format that defines containerized applications and includes deployment information, enabling a single parser to deploy different types of applications. A user interface allows selection of a containerized application, which is then parsed by an application server to execute on servers.
- Standardized file format for containerized applications
- Single parser for deploying different types of applications
- Application definition includes service, port list, container list, volume mount list, access mode list, resource usage list
- User interface for selecting containerized applications
- Application server parses and executes selected applications
Potential Applications: - Streamlining deployment of containerized applications - Simplifying management of different types of applications - Enhancing user experience in selecting and executing applications
Problems Solved: - Complex deployment processes for containerized applications - Inefficient management of multiple application types - Lack of user-friendly interfaces for application selection
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in deploying applications - Improved user experience in application selection - Standardization of application deployment processes
Commercial Applications: Title: Streamlined Deployment of Containerized Applications This technology can be utilized in cloud computing services, software development companies, and IT infrastructure management firms to optimize application deployment processes and enhance user experience.
Prior Art: Further research can be conducted in the field of containerization technologies, application deployment automation, and user interface design for application management.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in containerization technologies, deployment automation tools, and user interface design for application selection.
Questions about Containerized Application Deployment: 1. How does the standardized file format simplify the deployment of containerized applications? 2. What are the key components of the application definition in the standardized file format?
Original Abstract Submitted
A file is created in a standardized format that defines a type of a containerized application and includes information for deployment of the containerized application. A single parser of the standardized format is thus enabled to deploy different types of containerized applications. The standardized file format includes an application definition. The application definition includes a service, a port list, a container list, a volume mount list, an access mode list, a resource usage list, or any suitable combination thereof. A client device presents a user interface that allows a user to select a containerized application to execute. An application server parses an application template file for the selected containerized application and, based on the information in the application template file, causes one or more servers (e.g., one or more Kubernetes cluster nodes) to execute the containerized application.
