1. A method of managing cloud resources on a plurality of nodes of a hosting system in a distributed cloud computing environment, the method comprising: receiving a cloud resource configuration; identifying a node from the plurality of nodes to host the cloud resource configuration; setting an administrative state of the hosting system to reflect the hosting of the cloud resource configuration on the node, the administrative state comprising information for each node from the plurality of nodes in the hosting system, wherein a performer operating on the node manages an operational state of the node based on the administrative state of the node; detecting, by the performer, a difference between the operational state of the node and the administrative state of the node; and modifying, by the performer, resources of the node in order to align the operational state of the node with the administrative state of the node.
