Abstract

Claims (34)

1 . A method of automated deployment of an anomaly detection framework, the method comprising:

receiving, via an interface, data describing an anomaly detection framework to be deployed in a cloud computing environment, prior to deployment of the anomaly detection framework;

generating, based on the data, a bundle of configuration resources for deploying the anomaly detection framework in the cloud computing environment; and

providing, in response to receiving the data, a reference to the bundle, wherein the reference is provided as a response to at least one of a request or a message in which the data describing the deployment of the anomaly detection framework is included.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the data describing the deployment of the anomaly detection framework is received via a graphical user interface, and wherein the interface is configured to present the reference to the bundle.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the reference to the bundle comprises a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the bundle, when executed, deploys the anomaly detection framework in the cloud computing environment using the configuration resources.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request for the bundle; and

providing the bundle in response to the request.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein providing the bundle in response to the request is performed in response to determining that the request was received within a time window associated with the bundle.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request for the bundle; and

denying the request in response to determining that the request was received outside of the time window.

8 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising deleting the bundle after providing the bundle in response to the request.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the data describes deployments of respective anomaly detection frameworks in a plurality of cloud computing environments, wherein generating the bundle comprises generating the bundle to include configuration resources for deploying the respective anomaly detection frameworks in each of the plurality of cloud computing environments.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the bundle, when executed, causes a particular configuration of the anomaly detection framework to be installed for a particular cloud computing environment in which the bundle is executed.

11 . A computer program product for automated deployment of an anomaly detection framework, the computer program product disposed on a non-transitory computer readable medium, the computer program product including computer program instructions configurable to carry out the steps of:

receiving, via an interface, data describing an anomaly detection framework to be deployed in a cloud computing environment, prior to deployment of the anomaly detection framework;

generating, based on the data, a bundle of configuration resources for deploying the anomaly detection framework in the cloud computing environment; and

providing, in response to receiving the data, a reference to the bundle, wherein the reference to bundle includes an identifier to identify the bundle in response to a received request for the bundle.

12 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the data describing the deployment of the anomaly detection framework is received via a graphical user interface, and wherein the interface is configured to present the reference to the bundle.

13 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the reference comprises a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

14 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the bundle, when executed, deploys the anomaly detection framework in the cloud computing environment using the configuration resources.

15 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the steps further comprise:

receiving a request for the bundle; and

providing the bundle in response to the request.

16 . The computer program product of claim 15 , wherein providing the bundle in response to the request is performed in response to determining that the request was received within a time window associated with the bundle.

17 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the steps further comprise:

receiving a request for the bundle; and

denying the request in response to determining that the request was received outside of the time window.

18 . The computer program product of claim 17 , wherein the steps further comprise deleting the bundle after providing the bundle in response to the request.

19 . The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the data describes deployments of respective anomaly detection frameworks in a plurality of cloud computing environments, wherein generating the bundle comprises generating the bundle to include configuration resources for deploying the respective anomaly detection frameworks in each of the plurality of cloud computing environments.

20 . The computer program product of claim 19 , wherein the bundle, when executed, causes a particular configuration of the anomaly detection framework to be installed for a particular cloud computing environment in which the bundle is executed.
