Embodiment Construction

[0019] Referring now to the drawings, Figure 1 illustrates a typical methodology for catalog implementation and cloud resource provisioning. As shown, a user 24 accesses the cloud portal 10 to select and provision managed resources 20 from the cloud. A cloud catalog database (DB) 12 provides a catalog listing 14 of available images (or resources). Once an image is selected, a provisioning request is sent to managed resource 20 and the requested image is deployed from image database 18 . A directory listing 14 is prepared by the cloud service provider 22, which list includes a set of statically available images. For example, updating of the directory listing 14 occurs in a restricted manner when a new image 16 is prepared and made available by the cloud service provider. In this approach, there is little or no image assistance information in the cloud directory database 12 . Therefore, user 24 can only rely on his or her experience or expertise when provisioning resources fr...

Abstract

The invention relates to a cloud infrastructure and a method for deploying the same. The cloud infrastructure includes: a cloud portal for providing user access to cloud resources; a cloud catalog database having a catalog list of cloud resources; a cloud catalog solution generator that populates the cloud catalog database, wherein the cloud catalog solution generator includes: a first interface process for receiving event data for resources associated within a cloud infrastructure; a second interface process for receiving usage / account information, monitored information, and document information; an aggregation system that continuously aggregates the event data with the usage / account information, monitored information, and document information to create a dynamic catalog list having supplementary information for items in the catalog list; and a third interface process for outputting the dynamic catalog list to a cloud catalog database; and a cloud catalog suggestion engine that processes user inputs entered via the cloud portal and outputs a set of suggested items from the cloud catalog database.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject matter of the present invention relates to cloud computing, and more particularly, to systems and methods for providing enhanced and dynamic cloud directory information. Background technique [0002] Cloud computing continues to grow as the platform of choice for information technology (IT) solutions. Specifically, cloud computing allows businesses to utilize shared resources in a “pay-as-you-go” model, thereby providing the flexibility to adjust resources to meet specific business needs. [0003] In a given cloud infrastructure, end users can access or change (ie, provision) available resources such as storage, servers, applications, etc. via interfaces provided by the cloud service provider or provider. In a typical cloud environment, the cloud service provider provides a catalog of resources (usually a list of images) available to end users. Users can then choose the best match for their needs. [0004] However, one of the biggest cha...
