DYNAMIC POST-DEPLOYMENT SERVER CONFIGURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240231897 titled 'DYNAMIC POST-DEPLOYMENT SERVER CONFIGURATION

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a system for server instantiation or deployment with a post-deployment configuration service that orchestrates the execution of configuration scripts, logging, retry logic, and environment-specific infrastructure and service configurations.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Orchestration of configuration scripts for server deployment.
  • Logging, retry logic, and environment-specific configurations.
  • Repository for storing configuration scripts for different entities.
  • Orchestrated execution of first and second scripts for server configuration.
  • Support for reboot and continuation of script execution.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in cloud computing, data centers, software development, and IT infrastructure management.

Problems Solved: The technology addresses the challenges of automating server configuration, ensuring successful deployment, and managing environment-specific configurations.

Benefits:

  • Streamlined server deployment process.
  • Improved configuration management.
  • Enhanced reliability and repeatability of server configurations.

Commercial Applications: The technology can be used by cloud service providers, IT companies, and organizations with complex server infrastructure to automate and streamline server deployment and configuration processes.

Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include existing server orchestration tools, configuration management systems, and deployment automation solutions.

Frequently Updated Research: Research on server orchestration, configuration management, and deployment automation is continuously evolving in the field of IT infrastructure management.

Questions about Server Orchestration: 1. How does the technology ensure the successful execution of configuration scripts after server deployment? 2. What are the potential challenges in orchestrating multiple scripts for server configuration?


Original Abstract Submitted

server instantiation or deployment with at least an orchestrated post-deployment configuration service utilizing an exemplary framework providing script orchestration, logging, retry logic and environment-specific infrastructure and service configurations. at least one repository may store configuration scripts (or their equivalent), including first scripts associated with, e.g., a multi-tenant system, vendor, database provider, controller, etc., and second scripts associated with, e.g., a tenant, a database client, customer, etc. after instantiating or installing a server, it may be configured with orchestrated execution to ensure successful first server configuration, and then further configured with orchestrated execution of second scripts to ensure successful subsequent server configuration. orchestration includes retry logic, logging, and reboot support to repeat or continue script execution after reboot, and the number of scripts series is arbitrary, e.g., there may first, second, third, etc. to orchestrate configuring or deploying a server as desired.
