Abstract
Systems and methods for facilitating cloud-computing provisioning using deployment templates. A deployment management system receives a deployment template that includes a declarative portion specifying a plurality of resources to be deployed and an imperative portion specifying at least one procedure for adding, reconfiguring, or terminating a resource. The deployment management system generates an enumeration of a set of resources deployed prior to implementing a transition based on the deployment template, and generates a second enumeration of resources prospectively representative of a deployment conformant with the template subsequent to implementing the transition. The deployment management system identifies difference between the enumerations and generates a transition plan including a sequence of procedures for implementing the deployment template. In some implementations, an administrator can modify the transition plan. In some implementations, the transition plan includes conditional logic sequences and/or operations triggered by events.
