Claim 9:
10. A method comprising:
determining, by a processor, software services that are included in software products deployable to a user account of a distributed computing environment, wherein the software services are executable software programs that support the software products;
determining, by the processor, task permissions to be set in the user account for allowing the software services to execute tasks in the distributed computing environment, wherein the task permissions include a first set of task permissions associated with implementing a particular software service as part of a first software product among the software products, and wherein the task permissions include a second set of task permissions associated with implementing the particular software service as part of a second software product among the software products;
generating, by the processor, a list of task permissions by consolidating the task permissions based on predefined rules, wherein generating the list of task permissions involves:
generating a consolidated set of task permissions for the particular software service by merging the first set of task permissions with the second set of task permissions;
incorporating the consolidated set of task permissions into the list of task permissions; and

transmitting, by the processor, an output indicating the list of task permissions for causing the user account to be configured in accordance with the list of task permissions, to permit the software services to execute the tasks in the distributed computing environment.
