Systems are provided for configuring applications in a distributed environment to enable more granular customization of application behavior. A centralized hierarchical configuration data store may be used to store configurations corresponding to a multi-level hierarchical model. The distributed environment may include a plurality of applications hosted by a plurality of application servers, where the application servers and/or applications are associated with an environment, an instance, and a category. The plurality of applications may load and apply configurations via a configuration control engine from the centralized hierarchical configuration data store based on the environment, instance, and category associated with the applications.

Centralized hierarchical configuration system for applications in a distributed network

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for creating and managing a virtual operating environment on a physical machine connected to a distributed network, the virtual operating environment is virtualized by the physical machine. The invention may categorize the virtual operating environment using a tiered data structure, where each tier of the tiered data structure defines an attribute for categorizing the virtual operating environment. The invention generates a graphical representation of the tiered data structure for display via a user computing device that enables a user to communicate requests for causing the virtual operating environment to perform a function and communicates commands to the physical machine based on receiving such requests. The invention may additionally update the graphical representation after the virtual operating environment has executed the function.
