Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating recipes having platform-independent, resource-agnostic commands for performing work in a cloud computing platform. One of the systems includes a plurality of executors, each executor being operable to receive a recipe comprising one or more platform independent, resource agnostic commands, each command corresponding to a requested service to be performed by an execution engine on an underlying computing platform, translate each platform independent, resource agnostic command of the recipe into one or more platform independent, resource specific requests that satisfy the requested service on the underlying computing platform and make each of the one or more platform independent, resource specific requests to one of the one or more execution engines using a platform independent execution engine application programming interface (API).
