Abstract
A resource registry provides nondeterministic operation environment affording flexible access for resource execution and status monitoring on the cloud. The resource registry service provides generic resource management utilizing registration, updating, and unregistration by resource providers. A requester for an operation may register in the resource registry, an operation resource having parameters defined in metadata. The resource registry notifies a registered resource listener of this registration of the operation resource. The resource listener may then execute the operation according to parameters defined in the operation resource. The resource listener returns a response to the resource registry, concerning a result of execution of the operation. The resource registry updates this status in the metadata of the operation resource. The requester is then able to look up the operation resource's metadata to determine current status of the operation. The nondeterministic operation environment desirably avoids direct coupling between operation requestor and operation executor APIs.
