Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for on-demand resource provisioning for service instances. An on-demand service broker provisions IaaS resources at service instance creating time. The service broker provides a catalog listing one or more service plans, each service plan corresponds to a set of available resources. A user device selects a respective service plan that matches specific needs of an application that consumes the resources. The service broker generates a deployment manifest based on the selected service plan. The service broker then submits the deployment manifest to a deployment system. The deployment system provisions the resources to the service instance according to the manifest generated by the service broker.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating configuration files using executable template language statements. One of the methods includes receiving a configuration template file for a structured configuration language that defines nodes, relationships between nodes, and, for each of one or more nodes, associates metadata with the node. A reserved character pattern is identified in the configuration template file attached to text that defines a node in the structured configuration language, wherein the reserved character pattern has one or more associated statements in an executable template language. A graph representation is generated that includes the node corresponding to the text. Statements in the executable template language associated with the reserved character pattern are executed to generate associated metadata for the node.

Systems, methods, and computer program products for credential management. An application deployment system receives a deployment manifest for deploying an application in a cloud computing environment. A deployment director of the application deployment system determines a resource to be used by the application. The deployment director determines, from the deployment manifest, an identifier, e.g., a name, of credentials for accessing the resource. The deployment director requests the credentials from a credential manager of the application deployment system. Upon receiving the credentials, the deployment director modifies the deployment manifest by replacing the identifier with the received credentials. The application deployment system deploys the application using the modified deployment manifest and then deletes the modified deployment manifest.
