Methods and apparatus to manage and execute action in computing environments are disclosed. An example method includes determining an identifier of a type of a computing resource identified in a received request, processing a set of stored adapters to determine an adapter associated with the identifier, determining an action associated with adapter, and presenting a user interface including a user selectable identification of the action.

Methods and apparatus to manage and execute actions in computing environments based on a routing path

Methods and apparatus to manage and execute action in computing environments are disclosed. An example system includes a virtual machine resource platform to host a virtual compute node and a resource manager to: in response to a user request associated with the virtual compute node: determine a type of the virtual compute node; determine if an installed adapter identifies a type associated with the type of the virtual compute node; and when the adapter identifies the type associated with the type of the virtual compute node, present a user selectable identification of the adapter.

Methods and apparatus to manage and execute actions in computing environments based on a type of virtual compute node

Methods and apparatus to manage and execute action in computing environments are disclosed. An example system includes a virtual machine resource platform to host a virtual compute node; and a resource manager to: install an interface to receive an adapter configured to initiate an action that operates on the virtual compute node, install the adapter by processing an adapter definition to identify an action specified by the adapter, trigger an alert based on collected data associated with the virtual compute node, in response to the alert, trigger the action to be executed using a parameter extracted from the collected data, and execute the action to operate on the compute node.
