Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for enhanced cloud computing deployment. In some implementations, a computer system provides a repository comprising (i) deployment tools configured to provide a deployment application programming interface (API), (ii) a set of container files configured to operate together to provide a server environment, and (iii) configuration data for the container images. The computer system can provide a deployment workflow package that, when invoked for a cloud computing account of the customer, is configured to retrieve the container files, configuration data, and deployment tools from the repository over a communication network and store the retrieved items in the cloud computing account. The deployment workflow package is also configured to run the deployment tools and create deployment infrastructure in the cloud computing account.
