An identification may be made that the data processing system has issued a command requesting a computer-implemented service provided by at least one of a set of external providers. Based on the identification, an external provider (of the set of external providers) may be identified based on the requested computer-implemented service and supplemental information associated with the command (e.g., security standards). The command may be modified (e.g., processed, translated) based on a schema for the external provider and/or in accordance with the supplemental information, and execution of the modified command (by at least the external provider) may be initiated to facilitate provisioning of the requested computer-implemented service. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for managing command processing for a data processing system, the method comprising: making an identification that the data processing system has issued a command, the command requesting a computer-implemented service, and the computer-implemented service being provided by at least one of a set of external providers; and based on the identification: identifying an external provider of the set of external providers based on the requested computer-implemented service and supplemental information associated with the command; modifying the command based on a schema for the external provider; and initiating execution of the modified command by at least the external provider to facilitate provisioning of the requested computer-implemented service. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the supplemental information comprises security standards, and the command is modified based at least on the security standards to improve compliance with the security standards. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, wherein the supplemental information comprises information regarding classifications for invokers of commands issuable by the data processing system, each of the classifications establishing minimum levels of compliance with the security standards for modified commands that are based on the commands, and the command is modified also based on a minimum level of compliance of the minimum levels of compliance corresponding to an invoker of the invokers that invoked the command. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, wherein the supplemental information is defined, at least in part, by an administrator tasked with the managing of the command processing using the set of the external providers and the administrator is different from the invoker. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each external provider of the set of external providers provides computer-implemented services using an application protocol interface. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The method of claim 5, wherein application protocol interfaces of the set of external providers differ from one another and are controlled exclusively by the set of external providers. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the schema for the external provider is adapted to translate the command to the modified command using command mappings defined by the schema, the command mappings being based on an application protocol interface of the external provider. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the schema is a member of a schema repository comprising a plurality of schemas for the set of external providers. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the command is issued based on a command template of a repository of command templates, the command template being associated with the requested computer-implemented service. ### Claim 10 A non-transitory machine-readable medium having instructions stored therein, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations for managing command processing for a data processing system, the operations comprising: making an identification that the data processing system has issued a command, the command requesting a computer-implemented service, and the computer-implemented service being provided by at least one of a set of external providers; and based on the identification: identifying an external provider of the set of external providers based on the requested computer-implemented service and supplemental information associated with the command; modifying the command based on a schema for the external provider; and initiating execution of the modified command by at least the external provider to facilitate provisioning of the requested computer-implemented service. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 10, wherein the supplemental information comprises security standards, and the command is modified based at least on the security standards to improve compliance with the security standards. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the supplemental information comprises information regarding classifications for invokers of commands issuable by the data processing system, each of the classifications establishing minimum levels of compliance with the security standards for modified commands that are based on the commands, and the command is modified also based on a minimum level of compliance of the minimum levels of compliance corresponding to an invoker of the invokers that invoked the command. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the supplemental information is defined, at least in part, by an administrator tasked with the managing of the command processing using the set of the external providers and the administrator is different from the invoker. ### Claim 14 (depends on 10) The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 10, wherein each external provider of the set of external providers provides computer-implemented services using an application protocol interface. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 14, wherein application protocol interfaces of the set of external providers differ from one another and are controlled exclusively by the set of external providers. ### Claim 16 A data processing system, comprising: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor to store instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising: making an identification that the data processing system has issued a command, the command requesting a computer-implemented service, and the computer-implemented service being provided by at least one of a set of external providers; and based on the identification: identifying an external provider of the set of external providers based on the requested computer-implemented service and supplemental information associated with the command, modifying the command based on a schema for the external provider, and initiating execution of the modified command by at least the external provider to facilitate provisioning of the requested computer-implemented service. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The data processing system of claim 16, wherein the supplemental information comprises security standards, and the command is modified based at least on the security standards to improve compliance with the security standards. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The data processing system of claim 17, wherein the supplemental information comprises information regarding classifications for invokers of commands issuable by the data processing system, each of the classifications establishing minimum levels of compliance with the security standards for modified commands that are based on the commands, and the command is modified also based on a minimum level of compliance of the minimum levels of compliance corresponding to an invoker of the invokers that invoked the command. ### Claim 19 (depends on 18) The data processing system of claim 18, wherein the supplemental information is defined, at least in part, by an administrator tasked with managing command processing for the data processing system using the set of the external providers and the administrator is different from the invoker. ### Claim 20 (depends on 16) The data processing system of claim 16, wherein each external provider of the set of external providers provides computer-implemented services using an application protocol interface.
