Abstract: An example method for a programmable infrastructure gateway for enabling hybrid cloud services in a network environment is provided and includes receiving an instruction from a hybrid cloud application executing in a private cloud, interpreting the instruction according to a hybrid cloud application programming interface, and executing the interpreted instruction in a public cloud using a cloud adapter. The method is generally executed in the infrastructure gateway including a programmable integration framework allowing generation of various cloud adapters using a cloud adapter software development kit, the cloud adapter being generated and programmed to be compatible with a specific public cloud platform of the public cloud. In specific embodiments, identical copies of the infrastructure gateway can be provided to different cloud service providers who manage disparate public cloud platforms; each copy of the infrastructure gateway can be programmed differently to generate corresponding cloud adapters compatible with the respective public cloud platforms.

Abstract: Aspects of the instant disclosure relate to methods for facilitating intercloud resource migration. In some embodiments, a method of the subject technology can include steps for instantiating a first intercloud fabric provider platform (ICFPP) at a first cloud datacenter, instantiating a second ICFPP at a second cloud datacenter, and receiving a migration request at the first ICFPP, the migration request including a request to migrate a virtual machine (VM) workload from the first cloud datacenter to the second cloud datacenter. In some aspects, the method may further include steps for initiating, by the first ICFPP, a migration of the VM workload via the second ICFPP in response to the migration request. Systems and machine readable media are also provided.

Abstract: A cloud broker gateway interfaces with an enterprise network and one or more public cloud networks, including a first public cloud and a second public cloud. The cloud broker gateway receives a request for one or more computing resources from a tenant associated with the enterprise network, and directs the request to the first public cloud based on a brokerage policy for the tenant. The cloud broker gateway receives a response indicating the first public cloud cannot provide the one or more computing resources, and redirects the request to the second public cloud based on the brokerage policy for the tenant. The cloud broker gateway also establishes a hybrid cloud that provides access to the one or more computing resources between the second public cloud and the enterprise network.

Abstract: A sense of location is provided for distributed virtual switch components into the service provisioning scheme to reduce latency observed in conducting policy evaluations across a network in a hybrid cloud environment. A management application in a first virtual network subscribes to virtual network services provided by a second virtual network. A first message is sent to the second virtual network, the first message comprising information configured to start a virtual switch in the second virtual network that switches network traffic for one or more virtual machines in the second virtual network that are configured to extend services provided by the first virtual network into the second virtual network. A second message is sent to the second virtual network, the second message comprising information configured to start a virtual service node in the second virtual network that provides network traffic services for the one or more virtual machines.

Abstract: A sense of location is provided for distributed virtual switch components into the service provisioning scheme to reduce latency observed in conducting policy evaluations across a network in a hybrid cloud environment. A management application in a first virtual network subscribes to virtual network services provided by a first virtual service node in the first virtual network. A second virtual network receives the subscription to the virtual network services and starts a virtual switch that switches network traffic for one or more virtual machines in the second virtual network that are configured to extend services provided by the first virtual network into the second virtual network. The second virtual network starts a second virtual service node in the second virtual network that provides network traffic services for the one or more virtual machines.
