Releasing SaaS

Release Flow

Prerequisites

• Deploy your SaaS products on Huawei Cloud (International) infrastructure. Huawei Cloud KooGallery does not accept SaaS products that are not deployed on Huawei Cloud (International) infrastructure.
• Follow the guidance described in SaaS Product Access Guide V2.0 to develop interfaces. The SaaS 2.0 interface protocols are more secure, more reliable, and easier to use.
• Debug interfaces for application access. KooGallery provides the application access debugging function. Ensure that all required interfaces are debugged successfully. To ensure that your SaaS products can be enabled after subscription, KooGallery will save the successful debugging cases for interface verification during review of release and modification requests.
• If your SaaS products involve websites (including frontend and backend portals), ensure that your products do not contain malicious content or high-risk vulnerabilities. Before releasing your products, scan them by following the SaaS Product Security Vulnerability Scan Operation Guide and Security Specifications. When releasing the products, associate the products with the corresponding scan test reports and submit them for review.

Procedure

1. Log in to the Seller Console using your Huawei Cloud account that you used to register with KooGallery.
2. In the navigation pane, choose Product Management > My Products.
3. Click Release New Product in the upper right corner of the page.
4. In the Delivery Method area, select SaaS and enter related information as prompted.
   NOTICE:

   Involve Service Supervision

   If customers can use the product after they submit requests, or it takes some time to provision services for customers, select Yes. Orders of the product will be settled after the corresponding service flows are completed. This parameter cannot be modified after the product is released to KooGallery.

   For details about the service flow, see Supervising SaaS Products.

   If customers can immediately use the product after subscription, select No.

   Production System API URL

   Select a saved address of a service interface that has been debugged. The address must start with http:// or https:// and must be a domain name. The production system server must be deployed on a Huawei Cloud ECS.

   To release a product billed on a yearly/monthly basis, debug the interfaces of product subscription (yearly/monthly) and expiration as well as resource renewal and release. To release a product billed by one-time payment, debug the interfaces of product subscription (one-time) and resource release. For details about interface debugging, see SaaS Product Access Guide V2.0.

   The security transport layer protocol must be TLS1.1 or TLS1.2. TLS1.0, SSL1, and SSL2 cannot be used because they cannot ensure secure communications on the transport layer.

   Extension Parameters (optional)

   Click Add under Extension Parameters to add up to three extension parameters for product subscription. Ensure that the interface containing these parameters have been debugged successfully.

   To add a non-default parameter type, send an email to the KooGallery operations manager (partner@huaweicloud.com) to apply for adding the required parameter type. The application result is subject to KooGallery feedback.

   Provisioning Info (optional)

   Choose customers' private information to be transferred, such as the mobile number, email address, IAM username, and IAM user ID. You can select multiple options.

   If you select Mobile number, the mobilePhone parameter is carried in subscription requests.

   If you select Email address, the email parameter is carried in subscription requests.

   If you select IAM user info, the userId and userName parameters are carried in subscription requests.

   Sensitive Information Encryption Algorithm

   If privacy fields need to be transferred in a request, select an encryption algorithm for sensitive information based on the site requirements.

   SaaS Security Scans

   If the product to be released involves vulnerability scans, select a vulnerability scan result. If the product does not involve vulnerability scans, enter the exception cause.

   Involve Service Supervision

   If the SaaS product involves service supervision, select Yes. The system will settle orders whose service flows are completed. This parameter cannot be modified after the product is released to KooGallery.

   If the product involves service supervision, select a service flow. Download the delivery template as prompted, fill in the template, and upload it.

   Product Specification

   You can select Trial and set Trial Days for a yearly/monthly specification. Customers can use all resources under this specification for free during the period and upgrade to yearly/monthly subscriptions after the trial ends.

   Once you release a specification for trial use, you cannot cancel trial use or change the trial period. Exercise caution when selecting Trial.

   When you release your SaaS product for the first time, set Public Product to No, add a test specification priced 0, and set Trial Days to 3 for the product release test on KooGallery. After the test is complete, the test specification will be removed from KooGallery, and your product will be open to the public for sale.

   To set a fixed price for product specifications in yearly/monthly or one-time payment billing mode, select a simple pricing template.

   To set a separate price in each SKU for product specifications in yearly/monthly or one-time payment billing mode, select a custom pricing template. If an SKU contains attributes of the quantity type, you can also use linear or tiered pricing for the attributes. For details about how to release a SaaS product specification that contains multiple SKU attributes, see Releasing Multi-SKU Product Specifications.

   For details about how to release a pay-per-use specification/package or a stop-before-excess package, see Releasing Pay-per-Use Specifications/Packages or Stop-Before-Access SaaS Packages.

   

5. After setting the parameters, check them against Release Requirements. If the settings are correct, submit the product for release.
   1. When configuring the product, click Save as Draft at the lower right corner of the page to save it as a draft. You can check the draft in Product Management > Drafts. If you use the new release process, the system automatically saves the content as a draft.
   2. After submitting the product, choose Product Management > My Applications in the navigation pane to view the review progress and status. A release request is reviewed within three working days. If you submit 10 or more release requests within one calendar day, the review may take longer. The review result will be sent to you by email, SMS, or internal message. After the product is approved, it is listed on the KooGallery official website for search.
      NOTE:

      When you submit the product information, KooGallery calls the service interfaces of the production system in real time using the cases saved after you successfully debugged the interfaces. If an interface responds abnormally, a message will be displayed in the upper right corner of the page. In this case, locate and rectify the fault and submit the product information again. All interfaces must respond normally.
