Claim 1:
2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the at least one processor is caused to perform operations comprising:
generate an initial portion of the UI that provides:
a first initial prompt that specifies at least one of the selected level of hosting service or a cloud provider that provides the selected level of hosting service; and
a second initial prompt that specifies at least one of the selected resource allocation routine or a software provider that provides the selected resource allocation routine;

based on first initial input received from the input device in response to the first initial prompt, retrieve first data specifying at least one of a known incompatibility or a known affinity of the selected level of hosting service with at least one resource allocation routine or at least one support routine;
based on second initial input received from the input device in response to the second initial prompt, retrieve second data specifying at least one of a known incompatibility or a known affinity of the selected resource allocation routine or the selected support routine with at least one hosting service;
perform an interoperability check for a combination of the selected level of hosting service, the selected resource allocation routine and the selected support routine based on the first data and the second data to determine whether the selected level of hosting service, the selected resource allocation routine and the selected support routine are interoperable with each other; and
in response to a determination that at least two of the selected level of hosting service, the selected resource allocation routine or the selected support routine are not interoperable with each other, generate an indication that at least two of the selected level of hosting service, the selected resource allocation routine and the select support routine are not interoperable for presentation by through the UI.
