Instances of an application pod may be deployed to many different computing environments spanning native cloud installations, SaaS providers, and on-premise data centers. In order to make uniform changes to a distribution of an application pod, a lock manager may receive and schedule lock requests from many different types of utilities. These utilities may schedule exclusive locks on the application pod throughout the different computing environments, such that patches, updates, security protocols, and other changes may be instituted without interference from changes made concurrently by other utilities. The lock manager may schedule immediate and future locks, with lock extensions and lock overrides available for flexibility.

Techniques for self-service orchestration are disclosed. A system deploys instances of a self-service orchestration agent to tenant-specific software-as-a-service (SaaS) environments operating in a multi-tenant SaaS environment, without reconfiguring existing software in the tenant-specific SaaS environments. Each self-service orchestration agent includes functionality to configure one or more components. Each tenant-specific SaaS environment includes a dedicated set of software operating on a dedicated logical partition of hardware infrastructure. The system receives, via a self-service orchestration interface, a request to configure a component across the tenant-specific SaaS environments. The system: transmits the request to a self-service orchestration module that is operating in the multi-tenant SaaS environment and configured to communicate with each instance of the self-service orchestration agent; dispatches, by the self-service orchestration module, the request to each instance of the self-service orchestration agent; configures, by each of the self-service orchestration agents in a corresponding tenant-specific SaaS environment, the component.
