Discovery and modeling of deployment actions for multiple deployment engine providers

A method, comprising;

• modeling a plurality of operational units, each operational unit corresponding to an operational workflow and to one or more deployment engines of a plurality of deployment engines;
• selecting, for each of the plurality of operational units, one of the corresponding deployment engines of the one or more corresponding deployment engines;
• ordering the operational units with respect to the operational workflow;
• grouping the ordered operation units according to the corresponding selected deployment engines into a plurality of deployment engine groupings;
• mapping a plurality of output parameters corresponding to a first operational unit that concludes a first deployment engine grouping of the plurality of deployment engine groupings to a plurality of input parameters corresponding to a second operational unit that initiates a second deployment engine grouping, wherein the second grouping immediately follows the first grouping with respect to the ordering;
• inserting, between the first operational unit and the second operational unit a transitional operational unit for transitioning between a first deployment engine corresponding to the first deployment engine grouping and a second deployment engine corresponding to the second deployment engine grouping, to generate a multi-deployment engine operational workflow;
• and
• storing for execution the multi-deployment engine operational workflow.
