Abstract
A processing device receives an application descriptor of a composite application, the application descriptor comprising information for a plurality of nodes that comprise application components in the composite application. The processing device determines hardware criteria for the plurality of nodes based on the application descriptor. the processing device searches a pool of available hardware resources to identify a plurality of hardware resources that satisfy the determined hardware criteria. The process then allocates the identified plurality of hardware resources for the plurality of nodes, and provisions the application components on the identified plurality of hardware resources to cause the plurality of hardware resources to have states that correspond to the information for the plurality of nodes.
