A reusable framework is utilized for creating a software architecture in a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). After a general framework is created, that general framework is divided into a governance domain and an architecture domain. The architecture domain is further divided into architecture sub-domains within the architecture domain. Activities that are required for the governance domain and each of the architecture sub-domains and identified and described in detail, and owners and progress status markers for these activities are identified. The detailed descriptors of the activities, identified owners and progress status markers are then mapped onto a client-specific System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) work product to create an SOA-based software architecture. Deployment timelines for the governance domain and the architecture domain are determined, and a project plan for deploying the SOA-based software architecture is created.

The invention relates to a method for rapid deployment of an openstack cloud computing platform. A task of rapid deployment is completed by copying various system image files to network storage clusters through preset scripts according to custom identification rules. A made image template is duplicated according to made rules to generate other similar node images to complete a fast deployment process, an initial deployment management server can adopt various physical servers to carry out large-scale deployment tasks, and after construction of a cloud environment succeeds, a virtual machine can directly serve as a deployment management server to meet the requirement on flexible services so as to provide flexible services to subsequent cluster node deployment. The method is applicable to automatic deployment of various similar cloud platforms, deployment on each node server is not needed by adoption of the centralized deployment scheme, and accordingly deployment time is greatly shortened, simplicity and feasibility are achieved, and deployment efficiency and management flexibility are improved.

A method and system for automatically transitioning configuration settings among computer systems. Multiple configuration settings comprising a computer “personality” are located on a source computing system using multiple transition rules from a personality object. The computer personality includes customization choices, data files, electronic mail, system preferences, application customization choices, the network environment, browser information, etc. The configuration settings are extracted from multiple locations on the source computing system. The multiple extracted configuration settings are stored in a pre-determined transition format. The multiple extracted configuration settings are manipulated. A transition package is created from the multiple manipulated configuration settings. The transition package includes the multiple manipulated configuration settings. The transition package is sent to a target computing system. The transition package is infused on the target computing system to automatically transition configuration settings from the source computing system to the target computing system. The method and system may vastly reduce transition, configuration and deployment times for service providers, corporations, and end-users when a new computing system is deployed.

The invention discloses a service function chain deployment method based on SDN and NFV. A combination framework based on an SDN network and an NFV architecture and a modular deployment service function chain are established. Then, a service function chain deployment algorithm is carried out in the strategy controllers in the SDN network and the NFV architecture; after the user flow enters the network, the strategy controller performs strategy control; whether a network service function required by user traffic is matched with a VNF owned by a bottom layer or not is judged through a deploymentalgorithm of a service function chain; if not, the strategy control informs the management and arrangement component of the NFV of missing VNF information, and after obtaining the message, the management and arrangement component of the NFV deploys all the required VNFs into the corresponding virtual machines in a modular strategy through the NFV underlying facility resources to complete the whole deployment operation. The low time delay of the service function chain is ensured, the resource utilization rate of the service function chain is high, and the deployment time of the whole SFC is shortened.

To perform a distributed transaction in a CORBA environment, OTS (the CORBA Transaction Service) defines a process called “control object interpositioning”. It must be carried out on the server side to ensure transaction integrity. However, for middle-tier servers (servers that do not access a database directly) this process is not necessary. The control object can be simply passed through. However, the two propagation methods of OTS do not provide a good way to take advantage of this fact. The present invention defines a model by which the deployment nature of the server can be specified. Middle-tier or database-tier can be defined in a deployment descriptor file, which is read in deployment time by the server process. The present invention will optimize the middle-tier servers by bypassing the control object interpositioning process and handing the control object directly to the next tier, bringing noticeable performance gains for an n-tiered system.

A method, system and computer program product for optimizing virtual machine deployment time. A cloud controller receives a request from a user to configure a virtual machine with a designated CPU capacity. If the designated CPU capacity is less than or equal to a threshold, then the cloud controller determines if there are additional cloud resources available to be allocated to deploy the virtual machine. If so, then the cloud controller allocates additional CPU capacity to the designated CPU capacity to be used to provision the virtual machine thereby enabling a multithreaded startup to initialize the operating system and middleware tiers so as to reduce the deployment time of the virtual machine. The additional resources would only be available during the initial deployment time of the virtual machine and removed before the user is granted access to the system when it comes online.

This disclosure describes, generally, methods and systems for supporting multiple deployment models for enterprise business applications. In one embodiment, the method may include designating pillars associated with an enterprise business application. Each pillar may include application units which comprise logical groupings for application units used in the enterprise business application. The method may further include determining which of the application units are dependent to more than one of the pillars. Furthermore, based on the determination of the dependent application units, the method may generate deployment code associated with the dependent application units which is configured to be deployment model independent. The method may then receive, at deployment time, a deployment model designation indicating a type of deployment model selected to be used for the enterprise business application. Then, the enterprise business application may be deployed according to the deployment model designation.

A method, system and computer program product for optimizing cloud resources in utilizing a pool of virtual machines to service user workloads. A writeable partition is created to store middleware and user activity associated with a virtual machine obtained from a pool of available virtual machines to be deployed. In response to the obtained virtual machine being terminated, the contents of the created writeable partition are erased so that the data generated by the middleware and user activity will not be available for subsequent users. The virtual machine is later returned to the pool of available virtual machines after resetting its password and network address to a default state. In this manner, fewer cloud resources are used since resource intensive activities that were required in provisioning a new virtual machine can be eliminated since previously terminated virtual machines can be utilized in the pool of available virtual machines.
