1. A method for providing improved feedback during deployment operations of cloud-based software systems by generating, in real-time during the deployment operations, timelines that depict deployment status of resource instances in the software systems, comprising:

  • receiving information that declaratively defines which inter-related cloud resource objects are to be present in a software system;

    causing deployment of an instance of the software system by providing the information to a deployment processor that orchestrates creation of a plurality of resource instances based, at least in part, on dependencies, specified in the information, between the inter-related cloud resource objects;

    during a period of time in which the deployment processor is using the information to initially create the plurality of resource instances that belong to the instance of the software system;

    instantiating the plurality of resource instances that correspond to the inter-related cloud resource objects defined in the information; and

    providing the improved feedback by forming a timeline, in real-time, that depicts the status of each of the plurality of resource instances at each of a plurality of points in time by outputting status information about the current deployment status of each of the plurality of resource instances at each of the plurality of points in time;

    wherein the method is performed by one or more computing devices.
