Abstract
Calls, such as API calls to a resource provider environment, can be modeled and evaluated using a shadow environment before executing the call in an actual target environment. Such an approach ensures that any changes made as a result of executing the call will not cause the actual environment to be out of compliance with any relevant rules or regulations. Changes may typically be reflected in a configuration management database. A shadow copy of this database can be generated, and the call can first be modeled in this shadow copy. Shadow log entries including results of the processing can be generated and evaluated. If the changes would be compliant then the call can be transmitted to the actual API endpoint for the target environment, where the API call can be executed.
