Claim 0:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform:
receiving user input comprising information identifying a first lifecycle operation to perform on a data store and a configuration value for the first lifecycle operation,
wherein the first lifecycle operation comprises an operation that, when performed on the data store, manages the way in which data is structured in the data store by creating, deleting, or altering one or more data structures used for managing data in the data store;

accessing information in a template based at least in part on the information identifying the first lifecycle operation,
wherein the template links information identifying at least one lifecycle operation to information used for generating at least one command for invoking at least one computer program that operates on the data store and causes the at least one lifecycle operation to be performed on the data store, the at least one computer program including a first computer program; and

indirectly invoking performance of the first lifecycle operation on the data store at least in part by:
generating, based at least in part on the accessed information in the template, a first command for invoking the first computer program to perform the first lifecycle operation on the data store,
the first command comprising a reference to the first computer program and at least one argument to provide to the first computer program, the at least one argument being based on the configuration value; and

executing the first command to invoke the first computer program with the at least one argument to perform the first lifecycle operation on the data store.
