Abstract:
A computing system and method for providing a service for a guest container-based cluster of the computing system utilizes a translated service software object created in a supervisor container-based cluster of the computing system to create at least one resource to support the service requested for the guest container-based cluster. The translated service software object is created in response to a service software object being created in the guest container-based cluster. In response to the translated service software object being created in the supervisor container-based cluster, at least one service-related software object is then created in the supervisor container-based cluster that corresponds to the translated service software object. Provider-specific instructions are then sent to a resource provider from the supervisor container-based cluster to create at least one resource associated with the at least one service-related software object to support the requested service for the guest container-based cluster.
