Abstract
Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for service creation and management. A processor can detect an event relating to a service, and access a service creation database to identify a recipe associated with the service. The recipe can define a resource to be used to provide the service. The processor can access an inventory to determine if the resource is available, identify a service control to control the service, instruct an infrastructure control to allocate virtual machines to host components of the service, and issue instructions to the service control. The instructions can instruct the service control to load service functions to the virtual machines.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- instantiating a service control within a server allocation of the system in response to one or more application programming interface (API) calls received from an operations management controller of the system;
- executing, via the service control, one or more API calls configured to cause creation of a service corresponding to the service control, the service created using an evaluation of a first recipe obtained by the operations management controller from a service creation database maintained by the system;
- detecting, at the operations management controller, a capacity event associated with the service, wherein the service comprises a service component that is loaded to a virtual machine included in a resource allocation controlled by the service controller;
- determining, based on a second recipe and based on the capacity event, a set of services configured to provide functionality of a scaled version of the service;
- and
- in response to a determination that the service component loaded to the virtual machine is not included in the set of services,
- instructing an infrastructure control to de-allocate the virtual machine and the service component, thereby causing de-allocation of the virtual machine and the service component, wherein de-allocating the virtual machine comprises de-allocating the service component that is loaded to the virtual machine.
A method comprising:
- instantiating a service control within a server allocation in response to one or more application programming interface (API) calls received from an operations management controller:
- executing, via the service control, one or more API calls configured to cause creation of a service corresponding to the service control, the service created in accordance with an evaluation of a first recipe obtained by the operations management controller from a service creation database;
- detecting, at a computer comprising a processor that executes the operations management controller, a capacity event associated with the service, wherein the service comprises a service component that is loaded to a virtual machine included in a resource allocation controlled by the service controller, the resource allocation comprising a virtual machine;
- determining, by the processor and based on a second recipe and the capacity event, a set of services configured to to provide functionality of a scaled version of the service;
- and
- in response to a determination that the service component loaded to the virtual machine is not included in the set of services, instructing, by the processor, an infrastructure control to de-allocate the virtual machine and the service component, thereby causing de-allocation of the virtual machine and the service component, wherein de-allocating the virtual machine comprises de-allocating the service component that is loaded to the virtual machine.
A computer storage medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- instantiating a service control within a server allocation in response to one or more application programming interface (API) calls received from an operations management controller;
- executing, via the service control, one or more API calls configured to cause creation of a service corresponding to the service control, the service created in accordance with an evaluation of a first recipe obtained by the operations management controller from a service creation database;
- detecting, at the operations management controller, a capacity event associated with the service, wherein the service comprises a service component that is loaded to a virtual machine included in a resource allocation controlled by the service controller, the resource allocation comprising a virtual machine;
- determining, based on a second recipe and based on the capacity event, a set of services configured to provide functionality of a scaled version of the service, and
- in response to a determination that the service component loaded to the virtual machine is not included in the set of services, instructing an infrastructure control to de-allocate the virtual machine and the service component, thereby causing de-allocation of the virtual machine and the service component, wherein de-allocating the virtual machine comprises de-allocating the service component that is loaded to the virtual machine.
