Abstract: A method of managing configurations of a plurality of data centers that are each managed by one or more management servers, includes the steps of: in response to a change made to the configurations of one of the data centers, updating a desired state document that specifies a desired state of each of the data centers, the updated desired state document including the change; and instructing each of the data centers to update the configurations thereof according to the desired state specified in the updated desired state document. The management servers include a virtual infrastructure management server and a virtual network management server and the configurations include configurations of software running in the virtual infrastructure management server and the virtual network management server, and configurations of the data center managed by the virtual infrastructure management server and the virtual network management server.

Abstract: A method of managing configurations of a data center according to a desired state of the configurations includes retrieving a running state of the configurations, comparing the running state against a first desired state of the configurations and determining a drift of the running state from the first desired state, notifying a cloud control plane of the drift, and in response to an instruction issued by the cloud control plane to apply the desired state, configuring the data center according to a second desired state.
