Abstract
A technology/operating system-agnostic and protocol-agnostic modular-based service delivery system that includes a management of enterprise-wide deployment of services and updates to services delivered by the modules of the system. Management includes determination and automatic implementation of an optimal schedule for service deployment, service version updates and service version roll-backs based on (i) predetermined lifecycle levels assigned to networked devices in the enterprise executing the service delivery application, and/or (ii) segments within the enterprise.
Claims10
A computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:
- a first set of codes for causing a computer to determine and automatically implement an optimal schedule for service deployment and service version updates based at least on (i) three or more predetermined lifecycle levels, each predetermined lifecycle level being assigned to one of at least three or more networked devices in the enterprise executing the service delivery application and (ii) segments within the enterprise, wherein each of the three or more predetermined lifecycle levels is selected from the group consisting of (1) development, (2) System Integration Testing (SIT), (3) User Acceptance Testing (UAT), (4) pre-production and (5) production, and wherein each of the at least three or more networked devices has a different one of the three or more predetermined lifecycle levels;
- a second set of codes for causing a computer to deny execution of non-permitted service versions by requiring networked devices in the enterprise that execute the service delivery application to verify a version being launched prior to executing the version;
- and
- a third set of codes for causing a computer to schedule deactivation of a declining service version and alert service delivery application users of the scheduled deactivation of the declining service version and a need to download an emerging version.
A method for managing deployment and update of services within an enterprise, the method comprising:
- determining and automatically implementing an optimal schedule for service deployment and service version updates based at least on (i) three or more predetermined lifecycle levels, each predetermined lifecycle level being assigned to one of at least three or more networked devices in the enterprise executing the service delivery application, and (ii) segments within the enterprise, wherein each of the three or more predetermined lifecycle levels is selected from the group consisting of (1) development, (2) System Integration Testing (SIT), (3) User Acceptance Testing (UAT), (4) pre-production and (5) production, and wherein each of the at least three or more networked devices has a different one of the three or more predetermined lifecycle levels;
- denying execution of non-permitted service versions by requiring networked devices in the enterprise that execute the service delivery application to verify a version being launched prior to executing the version;
- and
- scheduling deactivation of a declining service version and alert service delivery application users of the scheduled deactivation of the declining service version and a need to download an emerging version.
