Application dependent data center integration
First Claim
1. A method for deploying an integrated computing platform into an existing computing environment, the method comprising:
- generating an infrastructure template having a plurality of infrastructure parameters that specify configurations of a service executing within the existing computing environment;
modifying a configuration of networking and virtual resources from the integrated computing platform configured to execute one or more functional components of an application, wherein the configuration is modified based on the infrastructure template to enable communication between the functional components of the application and the service executing within the existing computing environment.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for integrating a converged infrastructure platform in a data center is provided. The described apparatus configures the physical and virtual resources that run on the converged infrastructure to communicate with the rest of the data center. The network integration process understands the data center network already in place and extends the set up into the converged infrastructure to enable communication between the converged infrastructure and the rest of the network in the data center. The apparatus uses an infrastructure template that describes the data center and that may be pre-defined for a specific application deployed within the converged infrastructure platform.
