METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVISIONING APPLICATIONS IN A DISTRIBUTED MULTI-TIERED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17722066 Titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVISIONING APPLICATIONS IN A DISTRIBUTED MULTI-TIERED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method involves a global controller receiving a management request from a user. If the request is determined to be a create request for provisioning an application in the DMC environment, scheduling packages are generated for the target domains of the environment. These packages are then sent to the local controllers associated with the target domains. The global controller obtains application information from the local controllers and provides it back to the user.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques described herein relate to a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method includes obtaining, by a global controller, a DMC environment management request from a user; and in response to obtaining the request: making a first determination that the DMC environment management request is a create request, and the create request is associated with provisioning an application in the DMC environment; in response to the first determination: generating scheduling packages associated with target domains of the DMC environment based on the create request; sending the scheduling packages to local controllers associated with the target domains; obtaining application information from the local controllers; and providing the application information to the user.
