Hi Nicolas, I think the points you mention are definitely worthwhile and for sure, inline with what we have been thinking about.
While it is true that for starters, we are only considering the starting of the instance it should be not too difficult to implement the runtime extensions you proposed. In fact, there are some hints at this in the presentation we gave at adaptto - but nothing very concrete tbh (but it is on the agenda for sure). >From my POV, I think we should get the basic system working and in place first but as soon as we have that, there is no reason I can think of why we shouldn't be able to provide what you outline below. That said, feel free to start a discussion about what it should look like concretely - I for one would be willing to help implementing it. regards, Karl On Tue, Oct 3, 2017 at 4:48 PM, Nicolas Peltier <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > from what i understood, new provisioning model discussions and > thoughts are targeted on starting an instance from a future > standardized description. > What i would like to understand is if there is any room at this time > for thinking about runtime: a way of > - describing what is running (feature list?) > - making a diff from initial features that started the instance? > - making a diff with another instance? > - making a patch out of a diff we could apply to an instance? > > If not too difficult to implement, this would drastically help daily > management of running instances (both infrastructure management and > application managements). > > If i just missed it, please send some pointers :-) > > Nicolas -- Karl Pauls [email protected]
