A computer-implemented method and system are provided for sharing web pages. The method includes: executing one or more programs stored in a memory of the computer system for generating a representation of a web page that is displayed in a window of a web browser in a user interface of the client computer system; recording the web page over a period of time, the recording including web page changes resulting from input events; recording each input event along with a time stamp associated with the event and associating the time stamp with the event, wherein the recording of the web page, input events, and time stamps are placed in a screencast file; extracting from the screencast file portions related to selected time stamps of the recorded input events; and assembling the portions to generate a combined web page recording.

System and method for screencast creation and abridging based on user web browsing

The present invention is generally directed at systems and methods for managing one or more data centers. Systems in accordance with some embodiments of the invention may include a software as a service (SaaS) application including a user interface for designing or modifying a topology, a VAR application in selective communication with the SaaS application and with one or more data stores, configured to determine how to create or modify the topology by configuring the one or more data centers. Methods in accordance with some embodiments of the invention may include receiving a topology design or edit, communicating with one or more data centers, determining how to satisfy the topology design or edit based on the topology design or edit and communications with the one or more data centers; and satisfying the topology design or edit by creating the designed topology or editing the pre-existing topology.

Integrated cloud data center management

The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the deployment and execution of a software offering. During operation, the system obtains a service definition of the software offering and a resource definition of resources available for use by the software offering. Next, the system creates a multidimensional model of the software offering by mapping a first set of elements from the service definition to a second set of elements from the resource definition. Finally, the system uses the multidimensional model to manage the deployment and execution of the software offering without requiring manual configuration of the resources by a user.

Multidimensional modeling of software offerings

The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the deployment and execution of a software offering. During operation, the system obtains a service definition of the software offering. Next, the system creates a work-breakdown structure based on a set of policies from the service definition. Finally, the system uses the work-breakdown structure to automatically provision a set of resources for use by the software offering without requiring manual configuration of the resources by a user.
