Abstract
Aspects of a target environment, such as the creation, deletion, and management of various resources, are managed using a set of self-service Web services of a separate control environment. A user can submit a Web services call into an externally-facing application programming interface (API) or other such externally-facing interface of the control environment. The API receiving the call, as well as information extracted from the call, can be used to determine appropriate actions to be performed in the target environment. A workflow can be instantiated that includes tasks used to perform the action in the target environment. Such an approach allows aspects of an environment to be managed through Web service calls to the control environment. Native access to resources in the target environment is provided using at least one externally-facing interface of the target environment, without accessing the control plane.
