Techniques enable an application for execution in a heterogeneous computing environment including an on-premise server and a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider. A scaffold defining assets usable by the application and configuration details therefor is developed. At least one scaffold map is generated. Each specifies target servers where individual assets are located and/or to be located. Different scaffold maps are generated for different user-specifiable environments to which the application is deployable. An application manager helps generate agent manifests based on the scaffold and one or more scaffold maps. The agent manifests are usable to configure respective target servers. A package manager helps provision the target servers based on the agent manifests. The provisioning includes distributing to corresponding target servers, and processing thereon, the agent manifests. The processing includes rolling back the distribution responsive to an occurrence of a defined exception case. The application is enabled following successful provisioning.
