  • receiving, by a profile service of an application server device from an end user, configuration information for a management interface associated with a deployment that provides a service for runtime operations on the application server device, the configuration information comprising selection of a subset of a plurality of properties of the deployment, the subset comprising properties of the plurality of properties identified by the end user as being of interest to the end user for viewing in the management interface associated with the deployment;

    receiving, by the profile service from a structure deployer of a deployment layer of the application server device, metadata of the deployment that describes each of the plurality of properties of the deployment, wherein the deployment layer deploys the service onto a microcontainer (MC) kernel of the application server device, and wherein the structure deployer analyzes the structure of the deployment to generate the metadata associated with the plurality of properties;

    generating, by the profile service, a first view of the deployment, the first view comprising all of the plurality of properties of the deployment;

    passing, by the profile service, the first view of the deployment to the MC kernel for the runtime operations of the service of the deployment;

    generating, by the profile service in view of the configuration information, a second view of the deployment, the second view comprising the subset of properties of the deployment;

    integrating, by the profile service, the second view to define the management interface, wherein the management interface implemented as an aspect that addresses a cross-cutting concern of management of the deployment; and
