    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing dependencies in an orchestration service. A computer-implemented method can include operations performed by a declarative infrastructure provisioner (DIP). In some embodiments, the DIP parses configuration data associated with a computing system and generates a directed acyclic graph (DAG) for booting a first resource. The DAG may specify a dependency of the first resource on a capability of a second resource. The DIP may traverse the DAG and determine, based at least in part on the traversal, that the dependency has been reached. The DIP may publish, to a scheduling process, an indication that the first resource is awaiting availability of the capability of the second resource. In some embodiments, the DIP receives a subsequent indication that the capability is available, regenerates the DAG, and recommences traversal of the DAG. Additional operations for booting the first resource may be performed in accordance with the recommenced traversal.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for efficient utilization worker threads in a workflow-as-a-service (WFaaS) environment. A client device may request a workflow for execution by the client device. The client device may receive the requested workflow and initialize a set of worker threads to execute the workflow and a set of heartbeater threads to monitor the set of worker threads. Upon receiving an indication of a processing delay, the client device may capture the state of the workflow, suspend execution of the workflow, and store the workflow in a temporary queue. While the processing delay persists, the client device may use the set of worker threads to execute other tasks. When the processing delay terminates, the client device may resume execution of the workflow.
