In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for management of quota in a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a tenant manager component enables configuration and management of tenants within the cloud environment, wherein the tenants can utilize services and resources within the cloud environment. The tenant manager enables quotas to be associated with one or more tenants restricting their provisioning or usages of the services and resources. An elasticity manager component determines usage of the cloud environment services and resources by the one or more tenants, and provides usage information to the tenant manager, for use in managing the one or more tenants in accordance with their quotas.

System and method for quota management in a cloud platform environment

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing administrative command progress status for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a job manager service provides an application program interface which receives administrative commands to be processed within the cloud environment as jobs, wherein each instance of the administrative commands is associated with a unique job identifier. A command line interface allows a user to issue a command to be processed within the cloud environment as a job. During progress of a job associated with an annotated command, a status associated with the progress of the job is determined and provided to the command line interface. For example, the system can provide job progress status during these operations, to reassure the user that the operation is proceeding normally.

System and method for providing administration command progress status in a cloud platform environment

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for supporting detachable administration commands for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a job manager service provides an application program interface which receives administrative commands to be processed within the cloud environment as jobs, wherein each instance of the administrative commands is associated with a unique job identifier. A command line interface allows a user to issue a command to be processed within the cloud environment as a job, detach the command line interface from the job being processed, and subsequently reattach the command line interface to the job being processed by indicating the job's unique job identifier. For example, several independent parallel commands can be executed together from one console or one script, and users can check on, or wait for a result of some task.

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing a job manager for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, the system include a job manager that manages the execution of jobs within the cloud environment including their job states. A job manager service provides an application program interface which receives administrative commands to be processed within the cloud environment as jobs. The job manager updates a job registry, including registering instances of the administrative commands together with unique job identifiers, and returning the job identifiers so that a user can retrieve command process status, and the result of the job can be stored in the job registry. For example, the job manager can perform housekeeping tasks, such as purging jobs according to a retention policy, performing any necessary cleanup, and performing security checks to ensure tasks are authorized.

System and method for providing a job manager for use with a cloud platform environment

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for supporting fault tolerant job management for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, the system comprises a job manager that manages the execution of jobs within the cloud environment including their job states, and a job manager service that provides an application program interface which receives administrative commands to be processed within the cloud environment as jobs. The job manager supports fault tolerant job processing including associating the jobs with checkpoints, recognizing a failover command for the jobs, and associating the jobs with work units of the administrative commands, and storing a state for each job upon processing each work unit of the command.
