Abstract
A system, method, and medium are disclosed for managing application deployments on cloud infrastructures. The system comprises a services console configured to store management policies. Each management policy corresponds to a respective application deployment on one or more clouds and indicates (1) one or more potential runtime conditions and (2) one or more corresponding management actions. The system further comprises a monitoring engine configured to monitor runtime conditions of the application deployments, and to determine that runtime conditions of a given application deployment match the one or more potential conditions indicated by a given management policy corresponding to the given application deployment. The system also includes a policy engine configured to respond to the determination of the monitoring engine by performing the one or more management actions of the given management policy.
