USER INTERFACE FOR CRITICAL PATH RESOURCES

The present embodiments relate to determining a critical path that identifies an order for bootstrapping a subset of resources within a data center under build. A cloud infrastructure orchestration service (CIOS) can identify from configuration files associated with resources to be bootstrapped within the data set, a set of capabilities. The CIOS can identify a first set of capabilities on which publishing each respective capability depends. User input can be received identifying a selected flock. The CIOS can identify the unpublished capabilities on which capabilities corresponding to the selected flock depend. Those unpublished capabilities can be ranked and provided via a visualization to the user. The unpublished capabilities can be ranked according to identifying, for a respective unpublished capability, a set of capabilities that are capable of being published responsive to publishing the respective unpublished capability.
