Managing cloud services

摘要

A first set of management functions is instantiated external to a microkernel of a management system for managing a set of cloud services. The management system further includes a second set of management functions executing within the kernel of the management system. A subset of the first set of management functions is associated with a cloud service in the set of cloud services. A management task for the cloud service is handled using the subset of the first set of management functions. A usage information corresponding to the use of the subset of the first set of management functions for handling the management task for the cloud service is reported.

1. A method for managing cloud services, the method comprising:
instantiating in a data processing system using a processor and a memory, a first set of management functions external to a kernel of a management system for managing a set of cloud services, wherein the management system further includes a second set of management functions executing within the kernel of the management system; associating a subset of the first set of management functions with a cloud service in the set of cloud services; handling a management task for the cloud service using the subset of the first set of management functions; and reporting a usage information corresponding to the use of the subset of the first set of management functions for handling the management task for the cloud service; and managing, using a management function from the second set of management functions, a management function in the subset of the first set of management functions.
