Application building in a distributed computing environment

A computer-implemented system for building an application comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors,
• wherein the memory comprises instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
• receiving a request from a building environment to acquire at least one component for executing at least one function of at least one feature of the application, wherein the at least one feature being is to be deployed to at least one target node in a distributed service platform comprising a plurality of nodes;
• determining the at least one target node and the at least one component based on the request;
• acquiring the at least one component from the at least one target node;
• and
• sending the at least one component to the building environment for building the at least one feature.

A computer program product for building an application, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se, the program instructions executable by a computer to perform a method comprising:

• receiving a request from a building environment to acquire at least one component for executing at least one function of at least one feature of the application, the at least one feature being to be deployed to at least one target node in a distributed service platform comprising a plurality of nodes;
• determining the at least one target node and the at least one component based on the request;
• acquiring the at least one component from the at least one target node;
• and
• sending the at least one component to the building environment for building the at least one feature.
