The current document is directed to an automated-application-release-management subsystem that executes application-release-management pipelines that includes one or more tasks and/or stages, execution of which launch execution of scripts on specified host computers. The capability for launching scripts from application-release-management-pipeline tasks and stages provides flexibility in design and development of application-release-management pipelines and provides an incremental path for migration of legacy-script-based application-release management to automated pipeline-based application-release management.

Techniques for providing a calendar based provisioning and management for IT administrator/user activities in a virtual datacenter is described. In one example embodiment, an IT task is scheduled as a calendar appointment using an at least one registered calendar application residing in a user device. The at least one registered calendar application is then monitored for the scheduled IT task. The scheduled IT task is then translated into an action/command based on the outcome of the monitoring. The action/command is then issued to manage the scheduled IT task in the datacenter/cloud.
