Cloud based service for customer enterprises
Described herein is a framework for providing a cloud-based service that manages resources in one or more host machines (i.e., nodes) included in a customer enterprise deployment. A supervisor is instantiated in each node and communicates with a cloud-based enterprise configuration controller that is included in the cloud-based service. The cloud-based enterprise configuration controller provides a seamless manner to control and manage resources deployed on the one or more host machines included in the customer enterprise deployment.
1 . A method comprising:
generating, by a node, a key pair including a private key and a public key;
sending, by the node, a first request to a cloud-based configuration controller included in a cloud service infrastructure, the first request requesting creating a service principal that is to be associated with the node;
responsive to successfully creating the service principal, transmitting, by the node, a heartbeat message to the cloud-based configuration controller, the heartbeat message including first metadata indicative of a current configuration of a package that is executed by the node;
receiving, by the node, a heartbeat response message including second metadata indicating that the current configuration of the package is to be updated to a new configuration of the package;
sending, by the node, in response to receiving the heartbeat response message, a second request to a content delivery network included in the cloud service infrastructure to obtain the new configuration of the package; and
executing, by the node, the new configuration of the package obtained from the content delivery network, the executing including, installing the new configuration of the package on a server associated with the node.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the package includes an application and one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first metadata includes information identifying a version of an application included in the package or values of one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first metadata further includes information corresponding to a health metric of the node.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second metadata includes a URL associated with the content delivery network included in the cloud service infrastructure from where the node downloads the new configuration of the package.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the new configuration of the package corresponds to a new version of an application included in the package or new values of one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the heartbeat message is transmitted periodically from the node to the cloud-based configuration controller included in a cloud service at a predetermined transmission frequency.
8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
obtaining, by the node, a service principal identifier; and
generating, by the node, a node identifier based on at least the service principal identifier and the private key.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein a first node identifier associated with a first node in a cluster of nodes is different than a second node identifier associated with a second node in the cluster of nodes.
10 . One or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause:
generating, by a node, a key pair including a private key and a public key;
sending, by the node, a first request to a cloud-based configuration controller included in a cloud service infrastructure, the first request requesting creating a service principal that is to be associated with the node;
responsive to successfully creating the service principal, transmitting, by the node, a heartbeat message to the cloud-based configuration controller, the heartbeat message including first metadata indicative of a current configuration of a package that is executed by the node;
receiving, by the node, a heartbeat response message including second metadata indicating that the current configuration of the package is to be updated to a new configuration of the package;
sending, by the node, in response to receiving the heartbeat response message, a second request to a content delivery network to obtain the new configuration of the package; and
executing, by the node, the new configuration of the package obtained from the content delivery network, the executing including, installing the new configuration of the package on a server associated with the node.
11 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the package includes an application and one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
12 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the first metadata includes information identifying a version of an application included in the package or values of one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
13 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the first metadata further includes information corresponding to a health metric of the node.
14 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the second metadata includes a URL associated with the content delivery network included in the cloud service infrastructure from where the node downloads the new configuration of the package.
15 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the new configuration of the package corresponds to a new version of an application included in the package or new values of one or more configuration settings associated with the application.
16 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , wherein the heartbeat message is transmitted periodically from the node to the cloud-based configuration controller included in a cloud service at a predetermined transmission frequency.
17 . The one or more computer readable non-transitory media storing computer-executable instructions of claim 10 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause:
obtaining, by the node, a service-principal identifier;
generating, by the node, a node identifier based on at least the service-principal identifier and the private key, wherein a first node identifier associated with a first node in a cluster of nodes is different than a second node identifier associated with a second node in the cluster of nodes.
18 . A method comprising:
receiving, by a cloud-based configuration controller included in a cloud service infrastructure, a first request from a node included in a customer enterprise, the first request requesting creating a service principal that is to be associated with the node, wherein the node generates a key pair including a private key and a public key, and wherein the service principal is to be created based on the key pair;
receiving, by the cloud-based configuration controller, a heartbeat message from the node, the heartbeat message including first metadata indicative of a current configuration of a package that is being executed by the node;
determining, by the cloud-based configuration controller that the current configuration of the package is to be updated to a new configuration of the package; and
transmitting, by the cloud-based configuration controller, a heartbeat response message to the node, the heartbeat response message including second metadata indicative of the new configuration of the package that is to be downloaded by the node, and wherein the second metadata includes a URL associated with a content delivery network included in the cloud service infrastructure from where the node is to download the new configuration of the package, and wherein the node installs the new configuration of the package on a server associated with the node.
