Maintaining computing environments using operator with dynamically updatable state

One or more computer-readable storage media comprising:

• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computing system comprising at least one hardware processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one hardware processor, cause the computing system to receive a first plurality of objects useable with a first application;
• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to determine a current state of one or more parameters, resources, or services of a computing environment;
• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to compare the current state to predefined state information for the one or more parameters, resources, or services of the computing environment;
• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to determine that the current state is inconsistent with the predefined state information;
• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to determine whether an update condition is present;
• and
• computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to, based at least in part on determining whether an update condition is present, take an action selected from;
• (1) determining that an update condition is not present and updating the computing environment such that the current state is modified to match the predefined state information;
• or
• (2) determining that an update condition is present and updating the predefined state information for the one or more parameters, resources, or services of the computing environment.

A method, implemented in a computing environment comprising a computing system comprising at least one hardware processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one hardware processor, the method comprising:

• determining a current state of one or more parameters, resources, or services of a computing environment;
• comparing the current state to predefined state information for the one or more parameters, resources, or services of the computing environment;
• determining that the current state is inconsistent with the predefined state information;
• determining whether an update condition is present;
• and
• based at least in part on the determining whether an update condition is present, taking an action selected from;
• (1) determining that an update condition is not present and updating the computing environment such that the current state is modified to match the predefined state information;
• or
• (2) determining that an update condition is present and updating the predefined state information for the one or more parameters, resources, or services of the computing environment.
