Abstract: The deployment of applications able to consume cloud infrastructure services is currently a tedious process especially when it should be often repeated in the application developing phase. Even further, the deployed applications need to be monitored in order to detect and take action against possible anomalies. We present a technical solution that simplifies the deployment process, as being almost fully automated and capable of offering monitoring services for the deployed applications. Its integration as a module of an open-source platform for enforcing security controls by its users is further discussed.

Keywords: cloud computing; enabling platform; automatic deployment; distributed monitoring.
