US Patent 11281491 Execution of services concurrently

Methods to execute an orchestration of computing services concurrently, the method including developing a representation of a set of services where each service relates to other services via different types of relationships. Also, applying a set of dependency rules for each type of relationship within the set of services such that the application of the dependency rules creates inter-step dependencies between steps representing state transitions of the set of services and developing the orchestration plan based on the inter-step dependencies that allows for concurrent execution of nondependent steps.
