Automatic provisioning of cloud services

Abstract:

Systems and methods for automatically provisioning a service instance in a cloud computing system are presented. In an example embodiment, a message is retrieved by one of multiple provisioner nodes from a message queue shared by the provisioner nodes, the message including a service request to provision a service instance on the computing infrastructure. The provisioner node that retrieved the message may determine whether a resource of the computing infrastructure capable of hosting the service instance is available, and if not, may cause a creating on the computing infrastructure of a resource capable of hosting the service instance. The provisioner node may also cause deployment and configuration of software for providing the service instance on the resource.
