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 system and a method implement a cloud storage gateway configured to provide secure storage services in a cloud environment. A method can include implementing storage provisioning for a virtual machine (VM) in a hybrid cloud environment that includes an enterprise network in communication with a cloud. Enterprise network includes enterprise storage, and cloud includes cloud storage. The storage provisioning is implemented by deploying a cloud storage gateway in the cloud that facilitates secure migration of data associated with the VM between enterprise storage and cloud storage. A nested virtual machine container (NVC) is also deployed in the cloud, where NVC abstracts an interface that is transparent to a cloud infrastructure of the cloud. Cloud storage gateway can then be executed as a virtual machine within NVC. Such storage provisioning is further implemented by deploying the VM in a NVC in the cloud and directly attaching storage to the VM.
