Abstract
A system deploys software artifacts in data centers created in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system allows service owners to define shared pipelines that can be invoked by multiple parent pipelines. The system receives an artifact version map associating datacenter entities with services targeted for deployment on the datacenter entities. The artifact version map specifies attributes associated with invocations of the shared pipeline. The system generates deployment pipelines based on the artifact version map. The deployment pipelines allow a parent pipeline that invokes the shared pipeline to specify attributes including version of the shared pipeline, versions of software artifacts used by the shared pipeline, values of parameters used by the shared pipeline, or promotion criteria used by the shared pipeline.
