Data defined infrastructure
First Claim
1. A data defined infrastructure device for building an environment according to a wrapping workflow, the device comprising:
- a communication interface configured to receive a build request identifying the environment; and
an orchestration engine in communication with the communication interface, the orchestration engine configured to implement the wrapping workflow to;
receive the build request through the communication interface;
in response to receiving the build request, determine a determined operational goal for building the environment identified in the build request;
iteratively retrieve a plurality of component build instructions from a database based on component build instructions included in the determined operational goal; and
determine a particular order for building a plurality of component groups to achieve the determined operational goal based on a component group sequence described by the component build instructions; and
an automation engine configured to;
implement predefined build features to build the plurality of component groups in the particular order.

Abstract
A system for managing the operation of different components within a cloud system to accomplish various tasks, including the implementation of build features within the cloud system to achieve specific operational goals. The system may include a data defined infrastructure (DDI) tool installed within a data defined infrastructure (DDI) to manage certain features or tasks within the cloud system. The DDI may include an environment configuration database (ECDB), an orchestration engine, an automation engine, and/or other hardware and software components within the cloud system, such that the DDI tool installed on the DDI infrastructure may control operation of the ECDB, the orchestration engine, the automation engine, or other hardware and software components within the cloud system based on a set of data that fully describes the operational goal.

11. A method for building an environment, the method comprising:
-
receiving, through an interface, a build request identifying the environment; in response to receiving the build request, determining, by an orchestration engine, an operational goal for building the environment identified in the build request; iteratively retrieving component build instructions from a database based on component build instructions included in the determined operational goal; determining a particular order of building a plurality of component groups to achieve the determined operational goal based on a component group sequence described by the component build instructions; and implementing, by an automation engine, predefined build features to build the plurality of component groups in the particular order. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
