Systems and methods for continuous configuration deployment
Systems and methods are provided for providing continuous configuration deployment. A configuration definition object may be obtained from a remote datastore. The obtained configuration definition object may be stored in a local datastore. The configuration definition object may be obtained and stored in advance of a scheduled maintenance. The configuration definition object may be obtained in response to the configuration definition object being committed to the remote datastore. The configuration definition object may be used to generate different configuration objects. A configuration object may be generated from the configuration definition object and one or more system characteristics. A service request may be received, and the configuration object may be executed to perform a configuration of a computing system.
1. A sub-server system comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform:
providing, over a communication network, a configuration request for a configuration definition object to a first remote sub-server system, the configuration request being forwarded by the first remote sub-server system to a second remote sub-server system in response to the first remote sub-server system determining that it cannot satisfy the configuration request for the configuration definition object;
obtaining, based on the providing the configuration request to the first remote sub-server system, a configuration definition object over the communication network from a first datastore of the second remote sub-server system in response to the second remote sub-server system determining that it can satisfy the configuration request for the configuration definition object;
storing the configuration definition object in a second datastore of the sub-server system;
generating a first configuration object based on the configuration definition object and one or more system characteristics of the sub-server system;
receiving a service request; and
executing the first configuration object in response to receiving the service request.
2. The sub-server system of claim 1 , wherein the configuration definition object supports generation of multiple different configuration objects.
3. The sub-server system of claim 1 , wherein the configuration definition object is obtained in advance of a scheduled maintenance.
4. The sub-server system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more system characteristics comprise system version information.
5. The sub-server system of claim 1 , wherein the service request is received subsequent to obtaining the configuration definition object.
6. A method implemented by a computing system including one or more processors and storage media storing machine-readable instructions, wherein the method is performed using the one or more processors, the method comprising:
providing, over a communication network, a configuration request for a configuration definition object to a first remote sub-server system, the configuration request being forwarded by the first remote sub-server system to a second remote sub-server system in response to the first remote sub-server system determining that it cannot satisfy the configuration request for the configuration definition object;
obtaining, based on the providing the configuration request to the first remote sub-server system, a configuration definition object over the communication network from a first datastore of the second remote sub-server system in response to the second remote sub-server system determining that it can satisfy the configuration request for the configuration definition object;
storing the configuration definition object in a second datastore of the sub-server system;
generating a first configuration object based on the configuration definition object and one or more system characteristics of the sub-server system;
receiving a service request; and
executing the first configuration object in response to receiving the service request.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the configuration definition object supports generation of multiple different configuration objects.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the configuration definition object is obtained in advance of a scheduled maintenance.
9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the one or more system characteristics comprise system version information.
10. The method of claim 6 , wherein the service request is received subsequent to obtaining the configuration definition object.
11. A central server system comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the central server system to perform:
determining that a configuration definition object is committed to a local datastore; and
providing the configuration definition object over a communication network to a first remote sub-server system in response to the determination, the configuration definition object capable of being obtained from the first remote sub-server system by a second remote sub-server system based on a the second remote sub-server system providing a configuration request to a third remote sub-server system for the configuration definition object, the third remote sub-server system capable of forwarding the configuration request to the first remote sub-server system in response determining that the third remote sub-server system cannot satisfy the configuration request, and the configuration definition object capable of facilitating a generation of a first configuration object by the first remote sub-server system based on one or more first system characteristics of the second remote sub-server system, the second remote sub-server system capable of executing the first configuration object in response to receiving a service request.
12. The central server system of claim 11 , wherein the configuration definition object supports generation of multiple different configuration objects.
13. The central server system of claim 11 , wherein the configuration definition object is provided to the first remote sub-server system in advance of a scheduled maintenance.
14. The central server system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more first system characteristics comprise system version information.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the service request is received by the second remote sub-server system subsequent to the central server system providing the configuration definition object.
