Systems and methods for rapid assignment of pre-provisioned resources

A method comprising:

• receiving, at a platform interface of an infrastructure as code (IaC) platform, a request for a resource update plan for an application, wherein the resource update plan comprises parameters specifying at least one hardware resource than is not currently allotted to an assigned virtual resource that is assigned to the application;
• sending, via an application programing interface (API) call, the resource update plan to an API module of an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) module;
• checking, by the API module, eligibility of the assigned virtual resource to be updated;
• checking, by the API module, a capacity module for additional hardware capacity based on the parameters;
• receiving, by the API module, an identification of additional available hardware that meets the parameters;
• invoking, by the API module, an orchestration platform to implement the resource update plan for the application, wherein the orchestration platform reconfigures the assigned virtual resource by allocating the additional available hardware to the assigned virtual resource;
• and
• providing the reconfigured assigned virtual resource to a user for use with the application.

A system comprising:

• an infrastructure as code (IaC) platform, wherein the IaC platform is configured to:
• receive a request for a resource update plan for an application, wherein the resource update plan comprises parameters specifying at least one hardware resource than is not currently allotted to an assigned virtual resource that is assigned to the application;
• send the resource update plan to an API module of an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) module;
• check eligibility of the assigned virtual resource to be updated;
• check a capacity module for additional hardware capacity based on the parameters;
• receive an identification of additional available hardware that meets the parameters;
• invoke an orchestration platform to implement the resource update plan for the application, wherein the orchestration platform reconfigures the assigned virtual resource by allocating the additional available hardware to the assigned virtual resource;
• and
• provide the reconfigured assigned virtual resource to a user for use with the application.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, at a platform interface of an infrastructure as code (IaC) platform a request for an alternate virtual resource;
• determining, by the IaC platform, a specific virtual resource and an action based on the alternate resource request;
• sending, via an application programing interface (API) call, the specific virtual resource and the action to an API module of an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) module;
• checking, by the API module, entitlements for a user associated with the request for the alternate virtual resource to access the specific virtual resource;
• and
• passing, by the API module, parameters for the specific virtual resource and the action to an API module to an orchestration platform, wherein the orchestration platform executes the action involving the specific virtual resource.
