A control plane in a computing system receives a request to perform a management task on a set of computing system resources. The control plane identifies a target scope on which the management task is to be performed and dynamically obtains permissions, for this specific request, to perform the management task on the resources in the identified target scope.

Dynamically acquiring scoped permissions to perform operations in compute capacity and resources

A cross-platform deployment computing system receives an application to be deployed to a cloud. The application is parsed to identify assignment criteria and is assigned to an application availability group the defines security that defines a topology in which the application will be deployed. The application is then provided to a control plane for deployment at a target remote server architecture. In order to deploy the application to a different remote server architecture, the control plane for the different remote server architecture accesses the deployment definitions in the AAG and deploys the application to the different remote server architecture using the deployment definitions in the AAG to which the application is assigned.

Cross-platform deployment of application

Alerts based on detected hardware and/or software problems in a complex distributed application environment are mapped to recovery actions for automatically resolving problems. Non-mapped alerts are escalated to designated individuals or teams through a cyclical escalation method that includes a confirmation hand-off notice from the designated individual or team. Information collected for each alert as well as solutions through the escalation process may be recorded for expanding the automated resolution knowledge base.
