METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING A MANIFEST TO PROVISION AN APPLICATION IN A DISTRIBUTED MULTI-TIERED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17722071 Titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING A MANIFEST TO PROVISION AN APPLICATION IN A DISTRIBUTED MULTI-TIERED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method involves receiving a management request from a user to schedule an application in the DMC environment. The user is provided with acknowledgment of the request and a correlation identifier. The method also includes parsing the application deployment information from a manifest provided by the user and scheduling the application in the appropriate domains of the DMC. Finally, the user is provided with the correlation identifier, a success indicator, and application information.


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, an DMC environment management request from a user, and the DMC environment management request is associated with scheduling an application in the DMC environment; and in response to obtaining the request: providing acknowledgment that the request is received to the user; obtaining an order identifier and a manifest from the user; providing a correlation identifier associated with the request to the user; parsing the manifest to extract application deployment information; scheduling the application to target domains of the DMC based on the application deployment information; and providing the user with the correlation identifier, a success indicator, and application information.
