Abstract

Claims (69)

1 . A computing device operable to provide a multi-tenant system associated with a tenant and at least one repository for storing configuration scripts to at least configure a server after an instantiation of the server in a cloud, comprising:

one or more processors; and

a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that provides instructions that, if executed by the one or more processors, are configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

storing in the at least one repository, configuration scripts including first scripts associated with the multi-tenant system and second scripts associated with the tenant;

booting the server after the instantiation;

first orchestrating script execution of the first scripts, the orchestrating including determining an order of executing selected ones of scripts being orchestrated;

second orchestrating execution of the second scripts based on at least one selected from a group consisting of: parameter data provided by a parameter resource, and reusable modules provided by a reusable modules resource;

identifying a first script of the configuration scripts to be executed;

executing the first script to first configure the server, the executing having a first result;

logging a first result corresponding executing the first script;

rebooting the server after executing the first script;

identifying, based at least in part on the first result, a second script of the configuration scripts to be executed after the first script;

executing the second script to second configure the server;

logging a second result corresponding to executing the second script; and

identifying, based at least in part the second result, a third script to be executed in the order of the scripts.

2 . The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the medium further provides instructions configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

inspecting the first result;

determining the first result corresponds to a failure of executing the first script; and

identifying the second script to be the first script to repeat execution of the first script.

3 . The computing device of claim 1 , wherein results are disposed in a selected one or more of: the repository, a server-storage associated with the server, or a tenant-storage associated with the tenant.

4 . The computing device of claim 1 , in which the orchestrating execution of scripts is based at least in part on one or more dependency relationship between selected scripts in the repository, and wherein each of the execute first scripts is to have an associated successful execution before executing the second scripts.

5 . The computing device of claim 4 , wherein the dependency relationship is based at least in part on identifiers associated with scripts to be executed.

6 . The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions include further instructions configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

first configuring the server based at least in part on performing the first orchestrating script execution of the first scripts; and

second configuring the server based at least in part on performing the second orchestrating script execution of the second scripts.

7 . The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the cloud is a selected one or more of: a public cloud, or a private cloud.

8 . The method device of claim 1 , further comprising:

first configuring the server based at least in part on performing the first orchestrating script execution of the first scripts; and

second configuring the server based at least in part on performing the second orchestrating script execution of the second scripts.

9 . A method for providing a multi-tenant system associated with a tenant and at least one repository for storing configuration scripts to configure a server after an instantiation of the server in a cloud, the scripts including first scripts associated with the multi-tenant system and second scripts associated with the tenant, the method comprising:

first orchestrating script execution of the first scripts, in which orchestrating including determining an order of executing selected ones of scripts being orchestrated;

second orchestrating execution of the second scripts based on at least one selected from a group consisting of: parameter data provided by a parameter resource, and reusable modules provided by a reusable modules resource;

identifying a first script of the configuration scripts to be executed;

executing the first script to first configure the server, the executing having a first result;

logging a first result corresponding executing the first script;

rebooting the server after executing the first script;

identifying, based at least in part on the first result, a second script of the configuration scripts to be executed after the first script; and

executing the second script to second configure the server.

10 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

determining the first result corresponds to a failure of executing the first script; and

identifying, based at least in part on the failure, the first script as the second script to repeat execution of the first script.

11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein results are disposed in a selected one or more of: the repository, a server-storage associated with the server, or a tenant-storage associated with the tenant.

12 . The method of claim 9 , in which performing orchestrating execution of scripts is based at least in part on one or more dependency relationship between selected scripts in the repository, the method further comprising:

determining a first dependency for a subsequent script of a previous script to include a successful execution of the previous script prior to executing the subsequent script; and

executing the previous script until the successful execution of the previous script.

13 . The computing device of claim 9 , wherein performing orchestrating execution of scripts is based at least in part on one or more dependency relationship based at least in part on identifiers associated with scripts to be executed.

14 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the cloud is a selected one or more of: a public cloud, or a private cloud.

15 . A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that includes instructions for providing a multi-tenant system associated with a tenant and at least one repository for storing configuration scripts to configure a server after an instantiation of the server in a cloud, the scripts including first scripts associated with the multi-tenant system and second scripts associated with the tenant, the instructions, if executed by the one or more processors, are configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

first orchestrating script execution of the first scripts, in which orchestrating including determining an order of executing selected ones of scripts being orchestrated;

second orchestrating execution of the second scripts based on at least one selected from a group consisting of: parameter data provided by a parameter resource, and reusable modules provided by a reusable modules resource;

identifying a first script of the configuration scripts to be executed;

executing the first script to first configure the server, the executing having a first result;

logging a first result corresponding executing the first script;

rebooting the server after executing the first script;

identifying, based at least in part on the first result, a second script of the configuration scripts to be executed after the first script; and

executing the second script to second configure the server.

16 . The storage medium of claim 15 , the instructions further including instructions configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

determining the first result corresponds to a failure of executing the first script; and

identifying, based at least in part on the failure, the first script as the second script to repeat execution of the first script.

17 . The storage medium of claim 15 , in which performing orchestrating execution of scripts is based at least in part on one or more dependency relationship between selected scripts in the repository, the instructions further including instructions configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

determining a first dependency for a subsequent script of a previous script to include a successful execution of the previous script prior to executing the subsequent script; and

executing the previous script until the successful execution of the previous script.

18 . The storage medium of claim 15 , the instructions further including instructions configurable to cause the computing device to perform:

determining at least one dependency relationship based at least in part on identifiers associated with scripts to be executed; and

orchestrating execution of scripts based at least in part on the at least one dependency.
