Abstract

User interfaces are described for modeling estimations of resource provisioning. An example user interface may request a display of graphical indicators associated with nodes and edges, request a determination of an indicator of a service node workload associated with a service node included in a workflow path based on attribute values associated with the service node and an indicator of a propagated workload, and request provisioning of service nodes onto hardware nodes. The nodes may include external invocation nodes, service nodes, and hardware nodes, and the edges may include node connectors. An indication of an arrangement of an external invocation node, a group of service nodes, a group of node connectors, and a group of hardware nodes may be received, wherein the arrangement may be configured by a user interacting with the displayed graphical indicators, and may represent a workflow path.
