Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide an intelligent node controller (e.g., for an endpoint/node such as a cloud node) to process requests. Specifically, (among other things) the node controller will read a request message from a cloud node queue that is associated with the endpoint. The request message typically includes details related to a request for cloud resources and/or services received from a consumer. The node controller executes program code in an attempt to process the request. As the request is being processed, the node controller can place state messages indicating a state of fulfillment of the request on a cloud manager queue that is associated with a cloud manager from which the request message was received. In addition, the node controller can update an audit via an audit queue with the state messages. When a request cannot be processed, the node controller can place a failure message in a triage queue or the like.
