Techniques for region construction orchestration

Abstract

The Cloud Infrastructure Orchestration Service (CIOS) may track the build progress carried out by any appropriate number of regional orchestrators. The orchestrator control plane may be configured to generate a regional build plan for bootstrapping multiple services within a data center. The orchestrator control plane may instruct the regional orchestrators to perform the build according to the build plan. The regional orchestrators may be configured to update their execution state corresponding to the execution of the regional build plan as they execute the steps of the ordered steps of the regional build plan. An intervention may be received at any appropriate point in time (for example, when one of the steps fails), and this intervention may generate a new regional build plan. The new regional build plan may be used for subsequent executions of the regional build. This may allow for runtime modifications to be made.
