The present disclosure relates to brokering requests for cloud computing resources between a user and multiple infrastructure providers. According to one embodiment, an infrastructure manager acting as a broker receives a template including configuration information for one or more servers. For each of the plurality of infrastructure providers, the infrastructure manager generates an infrastructure provider-specific specification based on the generic template, transmits the provider-specific specification file to the infrastructure provider, and receives information from the infrastructure provider indicating whether the configuration is valid. The infrastructure receives a selection of one or more of the plurality of infrastructure providers to provision the one or more servers and requests the provisioning of the servers from the selected one or more of the plurality of infrastructure providers. The requests generally use the provider-specific specification files for the selected one or more of the plurality of infrastructure providers.

Cloud system order and configuration using customized templates

A computer implemented method, an apparatus, and a computer usable program product for rendering client-side logic in a webpage when the webpage is rendered is provided. A webpage development framework initiates a script component built in a component library of a webpage development framework, wherein the script component is subject to a lifecycle of the webpage development framework. The webpage development framework defines at least one webpage attribute using at least one value-binding expression in the script component, wherein the at least one value-binding expression provides access to a server-side data model. The webpage development framework then evaluates the at least one value-binding expression, wherein the at least one value-binding expression comprises a current value for the server-side data model.

Method and apparatus for resolving client-side logic

A method and system for selecting compatible systems for virtual server mobility. Responsive to determining a current location of a workload partition instance running on a managed server, mandatory compatibility tests specified in a compatibility policy associated with the workload partition instance are executed to compare properties of the managed server with properties of potential target systems. A list of potential target systems is generated that have passed the mandatory compatibility tests specified in a compatibility policy. Optional compatibility tests specified in a compatibility policy associated with the workload partition instance are executed. The potential target systems that have failed any of the optional compatibility tests are removed from the list to form a filtered list, wherein the filtered list comprises a list of potential target systems compatible to support relocation of process collections within the workload partition instance.
