Abstract

An integrated delivery platform for enterprise software development is provided. The platform includes services and scheduling capabilities for bootstrapping and scheduling software microservices. The platform is capable of handling both conventional software development and Artificial Intelligence (AI) software. Some implementations include a framework for operational environment in the cloud, a workflow automation and environment bootstrapping engine and a code generation engine, and a repository for publishing and downloading multi-modal components (e.g., data sets, machine learning models, API, applications, and integration solutions), and facilitates software reuse. The bootstrapping process kick starts a scalable platform that avoids manual handoffs.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A method of providing an integrated delivery platform for enterprise software development at a computing device including one or more processors and a memory storing instructions for execution by the one or more processors, the method comprising:

receiving a request for a microservice;
in response to receiving the request for the microservice, invoking a bootstrap workflow on an application developer suite (ADS);
selecting a bootstrap workflow stage based on the requested microservice;
wherein the selected bootstrap workflow stage includes at least one of:
(i) automatic provisioning, by the ADS, of a source code repository to house development artifacts;
(ii) provisioning, by the ADS, of a namespace and a sub-namespace in a secrets manager for centralized management of application-specific secrets;
(iii) creating, by the ADS, a plurality of starter scripts to provision cloud resources leveraging one or more design patterns with one or more embedded security standards;
(iv) provisioning, by the ADS, a new instance of a platform for deploying, managing, and scaling machine learning;
and
(v) orchestrating, by the ADS, with an automatic configuration server (ACS) to register a workload identifier and author one or more policies to support a zero-trust security model;
and
executing the selected bootstrap workflow stage at the ADS, wherein executing the selected bootstrap workflow stage comprises creating one or more predetermined templates based on a script or a template from a prior engagement with the ADS based on whether a type of software development is conventional or cognitive.

A system for providing an integrated delivery platform for enterprise software development at a computing device, the system comprising one or more processors and a memory storing one or more programs to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:

receiving a request for a microservice;
in response to receiving the request for the microservice, invoking a bootstrap workflow on an application developer suite (ADS);
selecting a bootstrap workflow stage based on the requested microservice;
wherein the selected bootstrap workflow stage includes at least one of:
(i) automatic provisioning, by the ADS, of a source code repository to house development artifacts;
(ii) provisioning, by the ADS, of a namespace and a sub-namespace in a secrets manager for centralized management of application-specific secrets;
(iii) creating, by the ADS, a plurality of starter scripts to provision cloud resources leveraging one or more design patterns with one or more embedded security standards;
(iv) provisioning, by the ADS, a new instance of a platform for deploying, managing, and scaling machine learning;
and
(v) orchestrating, by the ADS, with an automatic configuration server (ACS) to register a workload identifier and author one or more policies to support a zero-trust security model;
and
executing the selected bootstrap workflow stage at the ADS, wherein executing the selected bootstrap workflow stage comprises creating one or more predetermined templates based on a script or a template from a prior engagement with the ADS based on whether a type of software development is conventional or cognitive.
