8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to receive a status.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the status includes one or more of the following: a success message, a failure message, or an error message.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to receive a log entry.

11. A system of claim 10 , wherein the cluster ready application is stored in an application repository.

12. A system of claim 10 , wherein the cluster ready application includes an application wrapper.

13. The system of claim 1 , wherein determining the node of the cluster is based at least in part on a heuristic.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the heuristic is based on at least one of: a security policy, a failsafe, a tenancy policy, a central processing unit determination, an install limit, a rack policy, a disk requirement, or a memory requirement.

15. A system of claim 13 , wherein the application repository stores a plurality of versions of a specific application.

16. A system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to provide a node of a cluster a cluster ready application.

17. A system of claim 16 , wherein the application wrapper includes an application programming interface to the cluster application manager.

18. A system of claim 1 , wherein determining the node of the cluster includes determining a plurality of nodes.

19. A system of claim 1 , wherein determining the node of the cluster is based at least in part on a heuristic.

20. A system of claim 19 , wherein determining the node of the cluster is based at least in part on one of the following: a security policy, a failsafe, a tenancy policy, a central processing unit (CPU) determination, an install limit, a rack policy, a disk requirement, a memory requirement, a storage-compute colocation, an isolation/protection domain, a quality of service, or a service level agreement.

21. A system of claim 1 , wherein determining the management command includes determining one or more management commands.

22. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first application comprises a wrapper that is configured to translate a set of a plurality of management commands received from a cluster application manager.

23. The system of claim 22 , wherein the translator translates the set of the plurality of management commands to one or more commands in a format used by an application installer associated with the first application.

24. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine a base command corresponding to the management function for the first application based at least in part on the first management request, wherein the management command is based at least in part on the base command, wherein to determine the base command comprises looking up the base command in a mapping of management functions and commands based at least in part on the management command associated with the first management request.

25. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine a node of a cluster to send the management command, wherein the node of the cluster is determined based at least in part on the first management request and on cluster information associated with one or more characteristics of the cluster.

26. A method for a cluster application manager, comprising:

obtaining a first management request for a management function for a first application of a set of different applications, wherein the management function corresponds to a common function across a plurality of the set of different applications;

determining a management command based at least in part on the first management request, wherein the management command is determined based at least in part on performing a lookup with respect to a mapping of management commands to management functions, and the management command is translated to an application specific command for at least one other application of the set of different applications, the at least one other application being different from the first application of the set of different applications; and

providing the management command to a node of a cluster.

27. A computer program product for a cluster application manager, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
