Abstract: Techniques for provisioning multicast chains in a cloud-based environment are described herein. In an embodiment, a system sends a model of an application comprising sources, destinations, and virtualized appliances for initiation by host computers to a software- defined networking (SDN) controller. The SDN controller determines locations for the virtualized appliances and generates an updated model of the application, the updated model comprising the locations for the virtualized appliances. The SDN controller sends the updated model to the orchestration system. The orchestration system uses the updated model to generate a mapping of virtualized appliances to available host computers. Using the mapping of virtualized appliances to available host computers, the orchestration system sends instructions for initiating the virtualized appliances on the available host computers to one or more cloud management systems.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method is presented for updating a configuration of a deployed application, the deployed application comprising a plurality of instances each comprising one or more physical computers or one or more virtualized computing devices, in a computing environment, the method comprising: receiving a request to update an application profile model that is hosted in a database, the request specifying a change of a first set of application configuration parameters of the deployed application to a second set of application configuration parameters, the first set of application configuration parameters indicating a current configuration state of the deployed application and the second set of application configuration parameters indicating a target configuration state of the deployed application, in response to the request, updating the application profile model in the database using the second set of application configuration parameters, and generating, based on the updated application profile model, a solution descriptor comprising a description of the first set of application configuration parameters and the second set of application configuration parameters, and updating the deployed application based on the solution descriptor.
