Abstract: A hybrid cloud storage solution provides a private cloud storage system that is backed by a public cloud storage system. The private cloud storage system caches data files that are accessed from the public cloud storage system by virtual machines or containers in a virtualized computing environment. Subsequent accesses are directed towards the cached data files in the private cloud storage system, rather than being directed towards the public cloud storage system, thereby reducing costs and performance overhead associated with accessing the public cloud storage systems. The cached data files are contained in virtual machine disks (VMDKs) that are portable between virtualized computing instances that run in the virtualized computing environment.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a computer implemented method for receiving authentication credentials identifying a user; identifying computing systems for which the user is authorized access to; and transmitting tokens granting access to the identified computing systems. In some embodiments, no two tokens of the transmitted tokens grants access to the same one of the identified computing systems. The user typically has access to a management tool configured to manage the transmission of the received tokens to the corresponding computing systems, thereby granting the user the ability to have seamless access to any of the computing systems associated with the user's authenticated identity.
