Abstract:
In some examples, a marketplace system receives information from multiple service providers as part of onboarding of the multiple service providers with the marketplace system. Responsive to the onboarding, a cloud service created by the respective service provider is synchronized with the marketplace system. A marketplace catalog is linked with catalogs of the service providers, the linking including aggregating content of the catalogs into the marketplace catalog. Responsive to a request from a requester received through a portal of the marketplace system, at least one cloud service is identified using the marketplace catalog based on at least one search criterion of the request.
Abstract:
Selecting resources for a cloud service can include defining a specific resource provider constraint parameter, determining a parameter value for the specific resource provider constraint parameter, analyzing a plurality of specific resource providers and selecting a specific resource provider from the plurality of available specific resource providers based on the analysis and using best-fit model.

Abstract:
Providing services can include receiving a request for a first service provided by a resource provider and provide a reference to an instantiated first resource that the resource provider instantiated. Providing services can include receiving a request for a second service provided by the resource provider. Providing services can include partitioning the instantiated first resource to create an instantiated second resource if the instantiated first resource is capable of providing the second service. Providing services can include registering an availability of the resource provider and the instantiated first resource for further partitioning in a chain of building blocks. Providing services can include updating one of the chain of building blocks and propagate the update to the chain of building blocks.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to a method, system, and medium to exchange service management contents with a cloud entity via a self-contained cloud content package. The device retrieves a plurality of service management contents for a first cloud controller that offers a cloud service. Also, the device generates a self-contained cloud content package including a plurality of service management contents and a plurality of associated dependencies and configurations. The self-contained cloud content package includes elements for provisioning and managing the cloud service offered by the first cloud controller. Moreover, the device exchanges the plurality of service management contents with a second cloud controller in a cloud entity to support the second cloud controller to deploy and manage the cloud service.

Abstract:
A method of managing a number of secondary clouds by a master cloud service manager includes coupling a first cloud including a master cloud service manager to a secondary cloud including a child cloud service manager, and controlling, by the master cloud service manager, the child cloud service manager of the secondary cloud and a number of instantiated services offered on the secondary cloud.
Abstract:
Providing resources to a customer can include providing a node-relationship model based on a realized service offering. The node relationship model can include an instantiated first resource provided by a resource provider; an instantiated second resource provided by the instantiated first resource; and a plurality of defined relationships among the resource provider, the instantiated first resource, and the instantiated second resource. Providing resources to a customer can include creating a deployment plan for a new service offering based on the node-relationship model.
Abstract:
Process requests for services from users of a plurality of tenants, determine parameters to input into service designs based on each of the requests and each of the corresponding tenants, input the determined parameters into the service designs, select a specific resource provider of the building blocks at run time based on the parameters and the service designs, and instantiate the building blocks.
