A recommended software-stack can be determined for a target software item. For example, a system can receive an input specifying a target software item and a characteristic of a computing environment in which the target software item is to be executed. The system can then generate software-stack candidates for the target software item, the software-stack candidates having unique configurations of software components. The system can determine a respective score for each software-stack candidate of the software-stack candidates based on the characteristic of the computing environment and a unique configuration of software components forming the software-stack candidate. The system can select a particular software-stack candidate from the software-stack candidates as a recommended software-stack, based on the respective score for the particular software-stack candidate having a predefined attribute. The system can then generate an output indicating the recommended software-stack to enable the recommended software-stack to be included in the computing environment.

Determining a recommended software-stack for a target software item

Methods, systems, and computer program products are included for deploying a composite application. A method includes receiving, at a computing device, a container image that includes a nulecule. The nulecule is parsed to identify a first service, a second service, and a parameter of the first service. An input value is received corresponding to the parameter of the first service. A configuration value of the first service is modified to include the input value. The first service and the second service are deployed on the computing device, with the first service being configured with the configuration value.

Active representation of a composite application

An example method includes creating a builder image on a node. The builder image is based on an application, a combination of application dependencies of the application, and a set of node features of the node. The method also includes determining a set of optimized libraries corresponding to the combination of application dependencies and to the node. The method further includes creating, based on the builder image and the set of optimized libraries, an application runtime container. The method also includes running the application and the set of optimized libraries in the application runtime container.

Application stack builder based on node features

A method and system for software package auditing is described. A processing device receives user input that identifies one or more software packages to be included in a software product release. The one or more identified packages are imported into a package audit tool executable by the processing device and the package audit tool automatically validates that the imported packages comply with a set of one or more requirements specified for the software product release using the package audit tool.
