摘要:
Billing usage of a cloud computing environment is described. Usage is metered of one or more resources within the cloud computing environment by one or more users. The one or more users may be associated with at least one entity. The metered usage of one or more cloud resources is converted to a revenue-generating value. The revenue-generating value is billed to the at least one entity associated with the one or more users. Revenue is collected from the at least one entity for the metered usage of one or more cloud resources. The collected revenue is shared with a plurality of parties.

A cloud computing environment having a plurality of computing nodes is described. The plurality of computing nodes may be organized into a plurality of clusters, each of the plurality of clusters including a cluster controller. A virtual computing environment is created on each of the plurality of computing nodes. Communication with the virtual computing environment is enabled. An authorization to service a launch plan is received from a user. The launch plan includes at least one instance to launch. Bandwidth information is requested from each of the cluster controllers of the plurality of clusters. A score is computed for each of the plurality of clusters that responded to the requested bandwidth information. The launch plan is assigned to a cluster from the plurality of clusters based on the computed scores.
摘要:
Organizing permissions to authorize a subject to perform an action on an object in a cloud computing environment is described. A plurality of permissions associated with a cloud customer is created. A first set of permissions from the plurality of permissions is associated with one or more objects. Each of the first set of permissions describes an action performed on an object. A second set of permissions from the plurality of permissions is associated with one or more users. Each of the second set of permissions describes an action to be performed by one or more users.
摘要:
An authorizing entity is allowed to grant permission to a subject to perform an action on an object in a cloud computing environment. An authorizer is defined as the entity having granting authority to delegate a predetermined permission. A subject is defined as a group to whom the permission is being delegated. An object is defined upon which an action is authorized within the cloud computing environment. The action being authorized in the cloud computing environment is defined. Members of the subject group are authorized to perform the permitted action on the object.
摘要:
A cloud computing environment having a plurality of computing nodes is described. A seed device is connected to a network. From the seed device, a launching of a cloud computing management configuration is initiated. The seed device includes a repository of software. From the seed device, software is installed on one of the plurality of computing nodes to run a cloud computing management system. The software is loaded from one of the plurality of computing nodes onto each of the plurality of nodes. A computing node is selected from the plurality of computing nodes, to designate as a master node. Operations of the cloud computing management system is controlled from the master node.
摘要:
Organizing data in a cloud computing environment having a plurality of computing nodes is described. An authorization to service a request is received. The request may be from a user for launching an instance. In response to receiving the authorization and based on the request, an image list is determined. The image list includes information corresponding to a plurality of machine images. At least one machine image is identified from the image list associated with a functional requirement of the request. The instance is launched at the at least one computing node. The at least one machine image is updated after the instance has been launched.

摘要:
Launching an instance in cloud computing environment having a plurality of computing nodes is described. At a user's home cloud system, a request is received from the user to launch an instance of an object. At the home cloud system, a designated remote cloud system is determined from a federated plurality of remote cloud systems based on the request. The request is translated into a format suitable for the designated remote cloud system. The translated request is communicated to the designated remote cloud system. The instance of the object is launched at the designated remote cloud.
