converting the executable logic into an execution plan;

calling a number of resources providers to provision a number of devices; and

instantiating the service based on the execution plan.

12. A system comprising:

identify non-dependent relationships among objects of the blueprint;

execute the executable logic to cause instantiating of the service to produce an instantiated service, wherein the executable logic with non-dependent relationships are executed in parallel;

monitor a first resource of the instantiated service during execution for an event according to the monitoring policy, the first resource represented by the first node; and

in response to the monitoring identifying an incident, cause implementation of a remediation action with respect to a second resource according to the remediation policy to address the incident, the second resource represented by the second node.

13. The system of claim 12 ,

wherein deriving the executable logic comprises deriving a script using an interpreter that receives as inputs policies including the monitoring policy and the remediation policy.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein causing the implementation of the remediation action to address the incident comprises modifying the topology.

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising computer usable program code that upon execution causes a system to:

associate policies with nodes of a topology, the policies comprising a remediation policy associated with an individual node of the nodes;

associate a blueprint with service workflows to be executed and managed, wherein the blueprint is a collection of workflows to be executed and wherein the topology and the blueprint are supported by a same management engine and the blueprint is executed by the management engine to produce an instantiated service independent of the topology;

derive executable logic from the topology and the policies;

identify non-dependent relationships among objects of the blueprint execute the topology based on the executable logic to instantiate a cloud service, wherein the executable logic with non-dependent relationships are executed in parallel; and

perform a remediation action with respect to a resource of the instantiated cloud service according to the remediation policy to address an incident detected during execution of the instantiated cloud service, the resource represented by the individual node.
