22. .ResdefPkg
• Resdef file
• Viewdef file
• Icon
• Language
directories and files
.ResextPkg
• Resext file
• Script Payload
• Application Payload

23. Download or author
resource and extension
packages
Import .ResextPkg into
VMM
Verify Deployment
dependencies
• VHD meets requirements
• Network
• Load Balancer
Import .ResdefPkg into
Portal
Publish Gallery item to
Plans

25. Portal reads Gallery Item
VIEWDEF to build wizard
and gather user input
Portal produces a
Resource Configuration
(RESCONFIG)
• Parameter Bindings for a
single deployment
Portal creates a new
Cloud Service or
chooses existing
Portal calls SPF layer to
deploy gallery item into
Cloud Service using
settings in the
RESCONFIG
SPF reads RESDEF and
calls VMM with RESDEF,
RESCONFIG and Cloud
Service
VMM combines
RESCONFIG and RESDEF
with referenced RESEXT
to assemble deployment
configuration
VMM deploys Virtual
Machine Role instances
into Cloud Services
using RESCONFIG
settings.
