Service Management System - Implementation Summary

Implementation Date: 2025-10-06 Version: 1.0.0 Status: Complete - Ready for Testing


Executive Summary

A comprehensive service management system has been implemented for orchestrating platform services (orchestrator, control-center, CoreDNS, Gitea, OCI registry, MCP server, API gateway). The system provides unified lifecycle management, automatic dependency resolution, health monitoring, and pre-flight validation.

# Check platform status
provisioning platform status

# Check platform health
provisioning platform health

Manage Individual Services

# List all services
provisioning services list

# Start service (with pre-flight checks)
provisioning services start orchestrator

# Check service health
provisioning services health orchestrator

# View service logs
provisioning services logs orchestrator --follow

# Stop service (with dependent check)
provisioning services stop orchestrator

Dependency Management

# View dependency graph
provisioning services dependencies

# View specific service dependencies
provisioning services dependencies control-center

# Check if service can be stopped safely
nu -c "use lib_provisioning/services/mod.nu *; can-stop-service orchestrator"

Health Monitoring

# Continuous health monitoring
provisioning services monitor orchestrator --interval 30

# One-time health check
provisioning services health orchestrator

Validation

# Validate all services
provisioning services validate

# Check readiness
provisioning services readiness

# Check required services for operation
provisioning services check server

Integration Points

1. Command Dispatcher

Pre-flight checks integrated into dispatcher:

# Before executing operation, check required services
let preflight = (check-required-services $task)

if not $preflight.all_running {
    if $preflight.can_auto_start {
        auto-start-required-services $task
    } else {
        error "Required services not running"
    }
}

2. Workflow System

Orchestrator automatically starts when workflows are submitted:

provisioning workflow submit my-workflow
# Orchestrator auto-starts if not running

3. Test Environments

Orchestrator required for test environment operations:

provisioning test quick kubernetes
# Orchestrator auto-starts if needed
