Cloud management system and method for disparate computing nodes in a cloud computing environment

摘要

A cloud management system includes a computer executed application that generates an interface for management of the resources of a computing node by a cloud portal. The application receives an interface definition associated with the resource in which the interface definition includes information associated with one or more configuration operations to be performed on the resource. Using the interface definition, the application generates a cloud portal interface component that communicates with a cloud portal to translate the one or more configuration operations to a specified protocol, and generates a resource endpoint component that receives the configuration operations from the cloud portal interface component, translates the configuration operations to a format suitable for use by the resource, and transmits the configuration operations to the resource for configuring the resource.
