To configure an application platform for policy-based automated exception handling, a plurality of policies are established, each defining a requirement for applications. A plurality of exceptions are also established, each defining an expiration time and indicating at least one of the policies. A processor automatically generates a configuration file associating each of the exceptions with each policy indicated in the exception. The processor then automatically configures the application platform according to the configuration file. As a result of this configuration, an admission controller of the platform selectively tests an application designated for deployment to the application platform, based on a determination whether an exception assigned to the application is presently applicable to the policy. The exception is presently applicable based on an association of the exception with the policy in the configuration file, and a comparison of a present time with the exception's expiration time.

Apparatus and method for policy-based automated exception handling

A system and method provide for automated management of policies in an application platform. A plurality of policy groups are established, each according to a set of included policies and a set of assigned application groups, where each policy defines a requirement and an automated response, and each application group is defined according to a rule to determine whether an application is contained within. A configuration file for each policy group associates each assigned application group with each included policy. An automatic configuration, according to the configuration file for each of the policy groups, configures an admission controller of the application platform to selectively test an application contained within an application group and designated for deployment to the application platform, to determine whether it meets the requirement of each policy associated with the application group, and to selectively execute the automated response based on a failure to fulfill the requirement.
