Node controller for an endpoint in a cloud computing environment

An intelligent node controller system for an endpoint in a cloud computing environment, comprising:

• a bus;
• a processor coupled to the bus;
• and
• a memory medium coupled to the bus, the memory medium comprising instructions to:
• receive, from a consumer, a request message in a cloud manager queue, the request message comprising a request for at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• determine a node controller for processing the request message, the node controller being contained within a hypervisor of an endpoint comprising a set of virtual machines, wherein the node controller provides execution logic on the endpoint;
• place the request message in a cloud node queue for the determined node controller;
• read, by the node controller, the request message in the cloud node queue;
• select, by the node controller, at least one of the set of virtual machines to process a request associated with the request message;
• execute, by the node controller, program code via the execution logic to process the request at the endpoint via the at least one of the set of virtual machines, the processing the request comprising provisioning the at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• place, by the node controller, a state message indicating a state of fulfillment of the request on the cloud manager queue;
• and
• place, by the node controller, a failure message in a triage queue if the request cannot be processed by the node controller;
• wherein the cloud node queue, the cloud manager queue, and the triage queue are separate queue.

A computer program product for intelligent node control of an endpoint in a cloud computing environment, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage media, and program instructions stored on the computer readable storage media, to:

• receive, from a consumer, a request message in a cloud manager queue, the request message comprising a request for at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• determine a node controller for processing the request message, the node controller being contained within a hypervisor of an endpoint comprising a set of virtual machines, wherein the node controller provides execution logic on the endpoint;
• place the request message in a cloud node queue for the determined node controller;
• read, by the node controller, the request message in the cloud node queue;
• select, by the node controller, at least one of the set of virtual machines to process a request associated with the request message;
• execute, by the node controller, program code via the execution logic to process the request at the endpoint via the at least one of the set of virtual machines, the processing the request comprising provisioning the at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• place, by the node controller, a state message indicating a state of fulfillment of the request on the cloud manager queue;
• and
• place, by the node controller, a failure message in a triage queue if the request cannot be processed by the node controller;
• and
• wherein the cloud node queue, the cloud manager queue, and the triage queue are separate queues.

A method for deploying a system for intelligent node control of an endpoint in a cloud computing environment, comprising:

• deploying a computer infrastructure being operable to:
• receive, from a consumer, a request message in a cloud manager queue, the request message comprising a request for at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• determine a node controller for processing the request message, the node controller being contained within a hypervisor of an endpoint comprising a set of virtual machines, wherein the node controller provides execution logic on the endpoint;
• place the request message in a cloud node queue for the determined node controller;
• read, by the node controller, the request message in the cloud node queue;
• select, by the node controller, at least one of the set of virtual machines to process a request associated with the request message;
• execute, by the node controller, program code via the execution logic to process the request at the endpoint via the at least one of the set of virtual machines, the processing the request comprising provisioning the at least one of cloud resources and cloud services;
• place, by the node controller, a state message indicating a state of fulfillment of the request on the cloud manager queue;
• and
• place, by the node controller, a failure message in a triage queue if the request cannot be processed by the node controller;
• and
• wherein the cloud node queue, the cloud manager queue, and the triage queue are separate queues.
