1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: executing a cloud-independent application manager, that is included as part of a cloud-independent application framework instance in a cloud computing environment capable of supporting multiple cloud-independent application framework instances, on one or more computers to perform operations including: receiving a request to register an application configuration in the framework instance, the request comprising one or more cloud-independent methods included as part of an application configuration object, an identifier of an application domain that is registered to the framework instance, and rules that the application manager is to apply to manage content services servers that are employed by the framework instance to deploy the one or more cloud-independent methods; storing the rules in framework storage allocated to the application domain and configured to store the application configuration; and sending the application configuration object to a cloud-independent content services manager of the framework instance, the application configuration object enabling the content services manager to map the one or more cloud-independent methods to the application domain and store a mapping of the one or more cloud-independent methods in the framework storage.
