An upgrade campaign is generated for software deployment configuration, based on a source configuration and a target configuration for a software subsystem. A delta between the source configuration and the target configuration is determined. The delta includes a first set, a second set and a third set of the entities to be removed, added and upgraded, respectively, in the software subsystem. Based on dependencies among the entities, a sequence of stages is generated for removing, adding and upgrading the first, second and third sets of the entities, such that the entities are removed, added and upgraded according to a temporal order defined by the sequence of stages. |

1. A method performed by a computer system for generating an upgrade campaign for software deployment configuration, the method comprising the steps of:
receiving, by the computer system, a source configuration and a target configuration for a software subsystem, wherein each of the source configuration and the target configuration contains entities and associated entity types; determining a delta between the source configuration and the target configuration, the delta including a first set, a second set and a third set of the entities to be removed, added and upgraded, respectively, in the software subsystem; and generating, based on dependencies among the entities, a sequence of stages for removing, adding and upgrading the first, second and third sets of the entities, such that the entities are removed, added and upgraded according to a temporal order defined by the sequence of stages, wherein the step of generating further comprises:
generating a stage and assigning one or more not-yet-assigned entities in the first, second and third sets to the stage; andrepeating the generating and assigning until each of the entities in the first, second and third sets is assigned to one of the stages in the sequence. |
