Filed:

May 2, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/428880

Inventors:

Komal Mangtani - Santa Clara CA, US
Michael Blevins - Volcano CA, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/001000

Abstract:

A system and method for performing a business transaction including delivering a business message, comprising providing in a first transaction the business message to a first workflow process; transferring the business message from the first workflow process to a second process wherein the transfer is not part of the first transaction; wherein the business message is transferred to the second process using a protocol; and wherein transferring the business message to the second process will be successful even if the first workflow process abnormally terminates.

Vishwas NAGARAJA - Sunnyvale CA, US

David WINTERFELDT - San Francisco CA, US

Assignee:

VMWARE, INC. - Palo Alto CA

International Classification:

G06F 9/44

US Classification:

717101

Abstract:

A deployment system enables a developer to customize a deployment plan generated according to a logical, multi-tier application blueprint for deploying multiple applications in a cloud infrastructure. Using the deployment system, the developer inserts a custom script or task in a sequence of tasks to be performed to deploy an application component in different phases (e.g., installation, configuration, start-up) on a virtual machine. The deployment system anchors the custom script to the different phases of the application component's deployment such that the customizations to the deployment plan are maintained through changes to the underlying application blueprint.

International Classification:

G06F 9/445
G06F 15/16

US Classification:

717177

Abstract:

A deployment system enables a developer to define a logical, multi-tier application blueprint that can be used to create and manage (e.g., redeploy, upgrade, backup, patch) multiple applications in a cloud infrastructure. In the application blueprint, the developer models an overall application architecture, or topology, that includes individual and clustered nodes (e.g., VMs), logical templates, cloud providers, deployment environments, software services, application-specific code, properties, and dependencies between top-tier and second-tier components. The application can be deployed according to the application blueprint, which means any needed VMs are provisioned from the cloud infrastructure, and application components and software services are installed.

International Classification:

G06F 9/50

US Classification:

718104

Abstract:

A deployment system orchestrates execution of deployment plan in coordination with nodes participating in deployment of a multi-tier application in a cloud infrastructure. The deployment system distributes local deployment plans to each node and maintains a centralized state of deployment time dependencies between tasks in different local deployment plans. Prior to execution of each task, deployment agents executing on each node communicates with the centralized deployment system to check whether any deployment time dependencies need to be resolved. Additionally, the deployment system utilizes a node task timer that triggers a heartbeat mechanism for monitoring failure of deployment agents.

International Classification:

G06F 9/50

US Classification:

718104

Abstract:

A deployment system enables a developer to generate a deployment plan according to a logical, multi-tier application blueprint defined by application architects. The deployment plan includes tasks to be executed for deploying application components on virtual computing resource provided in a cloud infrastructure. The deployment plan includes time dependencies that determine an execution order of the tasks according to dependencies between application components specified in the application blueprint. The deployment plan enables system administrators to view the application blueprint as an ordered workflow view that facilitates collaboration between system administrators and application architects.
