Methods and systems for execution and management of software and data in a cloud environment

A method for executing and managing software and data in a cloud environment, comprising:

• receiving, at an application programming interface (API) of a cloud provider backend, a virtualized container, including software and data;
• coordinating, on the cloud provider backend, the deployment of the software to a job execution environment, including one or more cloud provider compute nodes and cloud provider storage;
• executing the software of the virtualized container in the job execution environment;
• capturing standard output and standard error streams from a command-line program being run in the job execution environment;
• and
• forwarding the collected information in real-time to a streaming or messaging server;
• sending, via the streaming/messaging server, the collected information to a on a user computing device.

A cloud-based platform, comprising:

• a network;
• a user computing device communicatively coupled to the network;
• a cloud-computing server communicatively coupled to the network, the cloud computing server configured to:
• receive input from at least one user of the user computing device;
• generate, based on the received input, a virtualized container, wherein the virtualized container includes software and data;
• execute the software of the virtualized container in a job execution environment;
• receive, in response to execution of the software in the job execution environment, data output;
• and
• publish, in response a directive from the at least one user, the data output.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor implement:

• causing to display at least one input interface to a user;
• receiving input from the user via the at least one input interface;
• generating a virtualized container, including software and data, based on the input received from the user;
• transmitting the virtualized container to one or more APIs of a cloud platform backend;
• receiving collected information from the one or more APIs of the cloud platform backend based on results generated by one or more cloud provider compute nodes of the cloud platform backend;
• and
• causing to display the collected information to the user.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor implement:

• receiving, at one or more APIs from at least one user computing device, a virtualized container, wherein the virtualized container includes software and data;
• deploying the virtualized container to a job execution environment, wherein the job execution environment includes one or more cloud provider compute nodes and cloud provider storage;
• executing the software and data of the virtualized container in the job execution environment;
• capturing standard output and standard error streams from a command-line program being run in the job execution environment;
• and
• forwarding the standard output and standard error streams in real-time to the at least one user computing device via a streaming or messaging server.
