Disclosed are systems and methods relating to the deployment of an application. A plurality of nodes in one or more clusters of nodes may be identified. Inventory information for each of the plurality of nodes may be retrieved. The inventory information may provide configuration and state information associated with each node. For example, the inventory information retrieved from the plurality of nodes may include an internet protocol address or a hostname associated with each the plurality of nodes, and a version of software installed on each of the plurality of nodes. An order for deploying the software application may be determined based on the retrieved inventory information. The order may identify a sequence in which the software application is deployed to at least one of the plurality of nodes. The software application may be deployed to at least one of the plurality of nodes based on the determined order.
