Abstract

The present disclosure provides new methods and systems for managing applications in a deployment pipeline. For example, a policy of a first environment and a policy of a second environment are detected. A request to move an application from the first environment to the second environment is received. Configuration data of the first environment is incompatible with the second environment. A configuration data set associated with the application is detected and includes various pieces of configuration data. Based on the various policies and the configuration data set, actions to be implemented in the configuration data set are determined, including actions associated with each piece of configuration data. The actions are implemented on the pieces of configuration data to obtain a reconfigured configuration data set that includes different configuration data than that of the first environment. The application and the reconfigured configuration data set are moved to the second environment.
