Systems and methods for synchronizing cloud resources are disclosed. An example method may include receiving a first request to synchronize first target cloud resources to a first specified state defined in a configuration repository, generating one or more first configuration commands corresponding to the first request, the one or more first configuration commands associated with a first cloud provider and a first cloud configuration framework, and executing the one or more first configuration commands to set a state of the first target cloud resources to the first specified state.

Configuration management of cloud resources for multiple providers and frameworks

A method including receiving events from different data sources for a service automatically executing in an enterprise system. A first event is enriched by providing the first event with first metadata that associates the first event with a first application used by the service. The first event is assigned to a time slice associated with the first application. A second event is enriched in a similar manner. A correlation graph of nodes and edges is built using the enriched events, with nodes representing the events and edges indicating relationships between the edges. A third event indicating a fault in the first application associated with the first node is received. The source of the error for the third event is identified using the second updated correlation graph and the time slice. The source of error is then mitigated.

Enriched high fidelity metrics

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for maintaining an application through an execution platform. An example method generally includes receiving a first workflow definition of a plurality of workflow definitions associated with an application. The first workflow definition may be a workflow defining a build operation for building the application. The first workflow definition is executed to build the application by retrieving an executable binary from a binary repository, retrieving source code for the application binary from an application source code repository, building the application binary by executing the executable binary on the retrieved source code, and storing the application binary in the binary repository. A second workflow definition is received to execute the application. The second workflow is executed to execute the application by retrieving the application binary from the binary repository, and executing the retrieved application binary to run the application.

Integrated system to distribute and execute complex applications

In one embodiment, a set of two or more workflow definitions is stored, wherein each workflow definition describes a workflow of an application. The set of two or more workflow definitions are used to implement a state machine of the application based at least in part on the two or more workflow definitions.

Execution of workflows in distributed systems

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for improved control of workflow execution. Embodiments include receiving, by an execution engine, a request from a user to execute a workflow that is stored in a repository. The workflow may be an operation that is associated with an operation privilege level, and a user privilege level of the user may be a lower privilege level than the operation privilege level. Embodiments include determining a repository privilege level associated with the repository by accessing repository privilege data in a file stored on the repository. Embodiments include escalating the user privilege level to the repository privilege level. Embodiments include executing the workflow, based on the request from the user, at the repository privilege level. Embodiments include restoring the user privilege level to the lower privilege level.

Repository-based privilege escalation for workflows

An execution platform comprising a workflow engine and an application engine is provided. A workflow definition associated with an application is received. The workflow definition is used to run an application workflow to perform an action with respect to the application, at least in part by causing an executable binary to be run by the application engine.

A set of two or more workflow definitions is stored, wherein each workflow definition describes a workflow of an application. The set of two or more workflow definitions are used to implement a state machine of the application based at least in part on the two or more workflow definitions.
