In one or more embodiments, a cloud operation reservation system is provided through which cloud operations may be scheduled and managed. The cloud operation reservation system includes logic for defining a set of time windows that are available to perform one or more cloud operations on cloud targets and presenting the set of time windows to one or more tenants of a cloud service. Tenants may browse the presented set of time windows and submit reservation requests to update and/or perform other operations on cloud targets. In response to receiving, a request to reserve one or more slots in a particular time window, the cloud operation reservation system schedules one or more cloud operations to be performed on a cloud target that is available to at least one tenant.

Cloud operation reservation system

In one or more embodiments, a system defines a plurality of waves for performing a set of scheduled operations on a set of cloud targets within a particular time window, where the plurality of waves includes a first wave for performing scheduled operations on a first subset of cloud target and a second wave for performing scheduled operations on a second subset of cloud targets. During the first wave, a first subset of scheduled operations within the particular time window are performed on two or more target resources from the first subset of target resources. The system determines a rate of success for performing the first subset of scheduled operations on the two or more target resources from the first subset of target resources. If the rate of success does not satisfy the threshold, then the system delays or cancels operations from subsequent waves including the second subset of operations.

Systems and methodologies for defining and scheduling custom actions as cloud operations

In one or more embodiments, a system comprises logic for aggregating and analyzing cloud targets based on a variety of attributes. Responsive at least to receiving a selection of one or more attributes, the system: (a) aggregates, from a plurality of cloud targets, a set of cloud targets that includes a first cloud target supporting at least a first cloud service for a first tenant and a second cloud target supporting at least a second cloud service for a second tenant; (b) presents, through a display interface, the set of cloud targets that includes the first cloud target and the second cloud target; and (c) receiving, through the display interface, a second selection of an action to perform on at least one cloud target in the set of cloud targets. Responsive at least to the second selection, the system performs the action on at least one cloud target.
