Abstract

The article presents the structure of information technology to automate the development and deployment of a virtual cloud environment based on a serverless architecture. The process of creating information technology for automation of development and deployment of a virtual cloud environment based on serverless architecture is presented, the presented metamodel for prototype case study is evaluated and possible future directions of improvement are suggested.
Although many software tools are available for deploying and managing complex cloud services, users often have to specify IaC solutions using low-level scenarios. Instead, known solutions require the developer to specify program components, such as a web application, and preferably the framework would automatically convert them to expandable code. To solve these problems and implement the desired capabilities, a modeled and scalable, fast-supply structure called Information Technology for Automating the Development and Deployment of a Virtual Cloud Environment Based on a Serverless Architecture (ІТаррх) is proposed. ITarrch meets the requirements of the topology specification for cloud applications, which allows you to create portable and interoperable templates for cloud services. The use of OpenTOSCA provides standardization of the delimitation of software applications and their dependencies on the specifications of the cloud platform..
The main contributions to this acticle are that the key elements of ІТаррх modeling are presented, which automates and masks the low-level details of application component specifications and cloud service provider specifications, and instead offers high-level intuitive representations; the use of an extended knowledge base and algorithms for automatic execution of IaC transformations is proposed; made a specific implementation of ІТаррх and its verification in the context of actual use cases.

Keywords: information technology, IoT, mathematical learning, cloud services, virtual machine, automation, domain modeling.
