Abstract
A method and system for staging in a cloud environment defines a default stage for integration flows. An integration flow is defined by (a) stages including (i) a live stage to follow the default stage, (ii) additional stages between the default and live stages, and (b) endpoint definitions for the live and additional stages. In response to an instruction to promote the integration flow, the integration flow is load balanced by allocating each stage to execution environment(s). Then, the integration flow is run in the execution environment(s). The load balancing includes, for each stage, (i) retrieving a list of execution environments which are available for execution of stages, (ii) selecting execution environment(s) on which to execute the stage and updating the list of available execution environments to indicate that the selected execution environment(s) is allocated, and (iii) storing the selected execution environment(s) as specific to the stage.
