SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SERVICE IMPORT/EXPORT IN A CLOUD PLATFORM ENVIRONMENT

摘要

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for exporting and importing a PaaS service and associated configurations across service domains are provided. The system comprises a cloud platform component provided as an installable software suite within a cloud environment; a test to production (T2P) framework module that includes a PaaS plugin and a plurality of T2P plugins and tools; and a user interface where the plugins and tools can be invoked to export domain configurations from a source service domain, and import the domain configurations to a target domain. In accordance with an embodiment, the system further includes a service provider interface (SPI) that can be implemented by an SME of each service housed in a service domain, to provide service backup and restore functionalities for exporting and importing that service.

1. A system for exporting and importing services from a source domain to a target domain in a cloud computing platform environment, comprising:
one or more computers including a cloud environment executing thereon; a cloud platform component provided as an installable software suite within the cloud environment, that supports provisioning of enterprise applications; and a service provider interface that includes a service backup interface and a service restore interface, wherein the interfaces are implemented by an SME of each service in the cloud platform component; wherein an SME of a service in a source service domain creates a backup file from post-provision changes to the service, and transfers the backup file to a target service domain; and wherein the transferred backup file is applied to a new service created using replicated domain configurations from the source service domain to the target service domain.
