Abstract

A dynamic cloud stack configuration system includes a cloud network, which comprises cloud components. A cloud stack server is coupled to the cloud network. The cloud stack server includes an interface, a memory, and a cloud stack configuration engine implemented by a processor. The interface receives a cloud stack request from a user device, which includes functionality parameters. The memory stores historic cloud stack configurations and each is associated with functionality parameters. The cloud stack configuration engine identifies cloud components associated with the functionality parameters. The cloud stack configuration engine further determines a cloud stack configuration, and determines whether the cloud stack configuration is an optimal cloud stack configuration by analyzing the historic cloud stack configurations. In response to determining that the cloud stack configuration is optimal, the cloud stack configuration engine further constructs the cloud stack configuration, and implements it at the user device.

Dependent claims

A dynamic cloud stack configuration system comprising:

a cloud network comprising a plurality of cloud components;
a cloud stack server communicatively coupled to the cloud network, the cloud stack server comprising:
an interface operable to receive a cloud stack request from a user device, wherein the cloud stack request identifies user preferences associated with an operation of a cloud stack;
and
a memory operable to store a plurality of historic cloud stack configurations, wherein each of the plurality of historic cloud stack configurations is associated with one or more functionality parameters;
a cloud stack configuration engine implemented by a processor operably coupled to the memory and the interface, and configured to:
identify one or more cloud components associated with the user preferences, wherein identifying the one or more cloud components comprises comparing the user preferences with features of the one or more cloud components;
determine the one or more cloud components are compatible with each other;
determine a cloud stack configuration that incorporates the one or more cloud components in response to determining that the one or more cloud components are compatible with each other;
determine whether the cloud stack configuration is an optimal cloud stack configuration by analyzing the historic cloud stack configurations;
in response to determining that the cloud stack configuration is an optimal cloud stack configuration, construct the cloud stack configuration by including the one or more cloud components that are determined to be compatible with each other and that meet the user preferences, and by excluding any cloud components that are determined to be incompatible with a remainder of the cloud stack configuration;
and
implement the cloud stack configuration at the user device.
