Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for deploying a computing resource (e.g., a service) in response to user input. A computer-implemented method can include operations of receiving (e.g., by a gateway computer of a cloud-computing environment) a request comprising an identifier for a computing component of the cloud-computing environment. The computing device receiving the request may determine whether the identifier exists in a routing table that is accessible to the computing device. If so, the request may be forwarded to the computing component. If not, the device may transmit an error code (e.g., to the user device that initiated the request) indicating the computing component is unavailable and a bootstrap request to a deployment orchestrator that is configured to deploy the requested computing component. Once deployed, the computing component may be added to a routing table such that subsequent requests can be properly routed to and processed by the computing component.
