A server computer (IPCDS) for commissioning/decommissioning IP resources to server instances (SI) provisioned using an orchestration solution. The server and client computers constitute a client-server architecture. The server computer has a processing system and memory for applications and data, including program code instructing the processing system to implement the following features: a user interface (UI) for remote management, providing access to data (DB) managed by the server computer; a web-based application programming interface (API) supporting service oriented architecture ["SOA"]; a logic to assign and release IP resources to the clients (CL) based on calls via the API. The logic creates unique IP resource(s) for the server instances (SI), which are nodes of networks with overlapping address spaces. The unique IP resources are based on a name of the private network of the respective server instance, and an IP address within that private network. |
