Abstract:
An example method is provided to deploy an application in multiple cloud computing environments. The method may comprise a computing system generating a first request to deploy an application in a first cloud computing environment according to a first deployment plan and a second request to deploy the application in a second cloud computing environment according to a second deployment plan. The method may comprise selecting, from multiple communication components configured on the computing system, a first communication component to communicate with a first orchestration node in the first cloud computing environment and a second communication component to communicate with a second orchestration node in the second cloud computing environment. The method may further comprise sending the first request to the first orchestration node via the first communication component, and the second request to the second orchestration node via the second communication component.
Abstract:
An example method is provided for a computing system in a private cloud computing environment to deploy an application in a hybrid cloud computing environment. The method may comprise generating a request to deploy an application in a public cloud environment, the request including a deployment plan that specifies one or more tasks to be executed by a virtual computing resource from a cloud provider to deploy the application. The method may comprise sending, to an orchestration node in the public cloud computing environment, the request to instruct the orchestration node to provision the virtual computing resource from the cloud provider and to cause the virtual computing resource to execute the one or more tasks. The method may further comprise receiving, from the orchestration node in the public cloud environment, status data and determining whether the application is successfully deployed in the public cloud computing environment.

Abstract:
An example method for reserving resources in a multi-cloud environment may include receiving, by a reservation broker executing in the multi-cloud environment, a first client request to reserve a first cloud resource in a plurality of clouds. The plurality of clouds includes a corresponding plurality of cloud brokers. The method may include selecting, by the reservation broker, a first cloud broker from the plurality of cloud brokers based on a first reservation type associated with the first cloud resource. The first cloud broker corresponds to a first cloud selected from the plurality of clouds. The method may also include transmitting, by the reservation broker, a first reservation request to the first cloud broker. The first cloud broker is configured to reserve the first cloud resource in the first cloud based on the first reservation request.
Abstract:
A method to deploy a multitier application in a virtualized computing environment includes receiving an open virtualization format (OVF) package. The OVF package includes an OVF descriptor, one or more virtual disk image files of virtual machines, and a multitier application blueprint specifying software components on the virtual machines and dependencies of the software components. The method further includes deploying the virtual machines based on the OVF package and executing the multitier application blueprint by deploying the software components on the virtual machines pursuant to the dependencies of the software components.

Abstract:
An example method is provided to perform policy-based data placement in a virtualized computing environment. The method may comprise receiving a request to create a virtual disk for a virtual machine in the virtualized computing environment. The request may include a usage type associated with the virtual disk. The method may further comprise, based on a data placement policy associated with the usage type, determining a datastore on which to place the virtual disk and to store data of the usage type associated with the virtual disk.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for managing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provided by a virtual machine are described. The system may include a management application, and may receive a feature package from the virtual machine. The feature package may be associated with a function supported by the virtual machine. The system may integrate the feature package into the management application, and transmit a first command to the virtual machine for executing the function at the virtual machine. The first command may be generated by the management application based on the feature package.
