Method for provisioning domain model of applications resources using semantic analysis of links

摘要

A method for provisioning application resources using semantic links is provided. Each application is divided into a set of separate resources corresponding to business logic linked to each other by semantic links. The application is configured based on user requirements. The provider assembles an application provisioning package, including creating a Virtual Environment (e.g., VM) on a customer site and launching an application instance on the VM based on required configuration determined by application resources and the semantic links required by these resources. A provisioning algorithm is implemented as a hierarchical tree. A root tree resource (object) is created. All relationships (semantic links) are determined. Existing linked objects are found and not yet existing ones are determined. The tree branch is created not further than one a link from a non-existent object. The leaf nodes of the tree are existing objects or objects that do not have the required links.
