Resource Orchestration Service

Features

• 

  Easy Integration

  • 
    

    ROS enables you to use templates to remove the hassle of calling resource APIs. You therefore only need to use declarative syntax to define required resources and dependencies between resources. ROS then automatically creates and configures resources and ensures consistency between the process and final resource status. The entire process is fully automated, and with API/SDK/CLI provided by ROS you can easily construct a complete automatic O&M system.

  Convenient Resource Delivery

  • 
    

    ROS templates provide a standardized way of delivering resources and applications. Based on abundant expression capabilities of ROS templates, you can define a complete architecture for the software system, including cloud resource creation and dependencies and software configuration. Besides, ROS templates are highly reusable. That is, one template can be deployed many times. You can adjust parameters and variables defined in the template based on your needs to increase deployment flexibility.

  Access control

  • 
    

    Abundant template samples are provided, covering multiple application scenarios.
    
    The online template editor can verify that the template is correct, and provides error details.
    
    Resources can be created through URLs of specified templates.

  Resource Creation

  • 
    

    Currently, ROS enables you to create and buy resources including Elastic Compute Service (ECS), ApsaraDB, Server Load Balancer, Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Object Storage Service (OSS), Redis, ApsaraDB for Memcache, Auto Scaling, Log Service, Resource Access Management (RAM), and products from other cloud markets.
    
    ROS allows you to create resources in most Alibaba Cloud regions.
    
    ROS supports Cloud Init for custom ECS resource configuration.
    
    ROS allows you to specify a resource deletion policy when you create a resource.
    
    ROS allows you to create the specification of each ECS instance with one key.

  Resource Updating

  • 
    

    ROS allows users to edit the original template and parameters online.
    
    Modify the template or parameters to configure and change resource attributes.
    
    Modify the template or parameters for resource auto scaling.

  Resource Deletion

  • 
    

    Use other services to delete resources from Stack.
    
    Completely delete Stack and its resources.
    
    Delete just the Stack and retain its resources.
    
    ROS processes the resources based on the deletion policy.

  Resource Query

  • 
    

    ROS allows you to check resource status and error details from the perspective of Stack, Resource or Event.
    
    You can query the template of a Stack.
    
    You can check the status of resources in a Stack.
