a user-interface coupled to the functional unit container to;
allow a user to select for execution at least one operation from operations that include;
providing to the user a plurality of operations for selection including an operation for launching one or more of the plurality of functional units;
checking a deploy-runtime status of the one or more of the plurality of functional units; and
selecting resources to configure on the one or more of the plurality of functional units; and
display as a user-selectable portion of a hierarchy, the user-selectable portion including non-technical management information relating to each of the plurality of functional units as a single status indicator while hiding the one or more related development components associated with each of the plurality of functional units, the one or more related development components to be arranged in the hierarchy at levels beneath the single status indicator.

Abstract
In various exemplary embodiments, a system and associated method to provide application-centric resource management of a plurality of functional units in an enterprise environment is disclosed. The system, in an exemplary embodiment, comprises a deploy service module to determine whether one or more of the plurality of functional units within the enterprise environment is added or removed, an information model repository to provide information related to the plurality of functional units, a functional unit container to store a listing of resource services related to the plurality of functional units, and a managed resources container to associate each of the plurality of functional units with one or more development components in the enterprise environment. A user-interface is configured to display non-technical management information relating to each of the plurality of functional units.
