Systems and methods for optimizing a cloud deployed service based on performance metrics of the cloud service

A method of managing a cloud deployed service, the method comprising:

• obtaining a plurality of constraints from a constraint database;
• generating a plurality of configuration plans, each of the plurality of configuration plans including the plurality of constraints, each of the plurality of constraints having a value selected from a range of permissible values for the respective constraint;
• transmitting the plurality of configuration plans to an orchestrator system, the orchestrator system to sequentially instantiate a cloud service based on multiple configuration plans of the plurality of configuration plans;
• measuring a performance metric of the cloud service as instantiated by each of the multiple configuration plans by a performance evaluator;
• and
• coordinating, by the performance evaluator, with the orchestrator system to optimize the performance of the cloud service,
• wherein coordinating with the orchestrator system comprises:
• providing the performance metric of the cloud service as instantiated by each of the multiple configuration plans to an analytics engine, the analytics engine to determine which of the multiple configuration plans is an optimal configuration plan, and the analytics engine to provide the optimal configuration plan to the orchestrator system to instantiate an optimally instantiated cloud service;
• receiving an indication from the orchestrator system of a change to the optimally instantiated cloud service;
• measuring an updated performance metric of the optimally instantiated cloud service;
• and
• providing the updated performance metric of the optimally instantiated cloud service to an analytics engine, the analytics engine to determine whether the change to the optimally instantiated cloud service cause more than a threshold performance impact of the optimally instantiated cloud service, based on the updated performance metric, and the analytics engine to conditionally provide a revised configuration plan to the orchestrator system when the threshold performance impact exists.

At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions for managing a cloud deployed service, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform the operations comprising:

• obtaining a plurality of constraints from a constraint database;
• generating a plurality of configuration plans, each of the plurality of configuration plans including the plurality of constraints, each of the plurality of constraints having a value selected from a range of permissible values for the respective constraint;
• transmitting the plurality of configuration plans to an orchestrator system, the orchestrator system to sequentially instantiate a cloud service based on multiple configuration plans of the plurality of configuration plans;
• measuring a performance metric of the cloud service as instantiated by each of the multiple configuration plans;
• and
• coordinating with the orchestrator system to optimize the performance of the cloud service,
• wherein coordinating with the orchestrator system comprises:
• providing the performance metric of the cloud service as instantiated by each of the multiple configuration plans to an analytics engine, the analytics engine to determine which of the multiple configuration plans is an optimal configuration plan, and the analytics engine to provide the optimal configuration plan to the orchestrator system to instantiate an optimally instantiated cloud service,
• receiving an indication from the orchestrator system of a change to the optimally instantiated cloud service;
• measuring an updated performance metric of the optimally instantiated cloud service;
• and
• providing the updated performance metric of the optimally instantiated cloud service to an analytics engine, the analytics engine to determine whether the change to the optimally, instantiated cloud service cause more than a threshold performance impact of the optimally instantiated cloud service, based on the updated performance metric, and the analytics engine to conditionally provide a revised configuration plan to the orchestrator system when the threshold performance impact exists.
