Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for creating and configuring computing clusters on a cloud computing platform. One of the methods includes receiving, by a service broker, a user input requesting creation of a computing cluster. The service broker generates, based at least in part on one or more release templates and the user input, a deployment manifest that specifies components and properties of a deployment of one or more clusters of a container orchestrator. The service broker provides the deployment manifest to a deployment manager. The deployment manager creates, according to the deployment manifest, one or more computing clusters in which one or more containerized applications are managed by the container orchestrator. Each computing cluster is configured to execute, in a user space, a containerized application specified by the container orchestrator. References to the computing cluster(s) are provided to a user device.
