US Classification:
718 1, 718104, 710 19
Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus can include a monitoring module configured to send an indicator representing that performance of a virtual resource satisfies a threshold condition. The apparatus can also include a management module configured to move a set of virtual resources including the virtual resource from a first portion of data center hardware resources to a second portion of data center hardware resources mutually exclusive from the first portion of data center hardware resources in response to the indicator. The management module can be configured to define the set of virtual resources based on an operational relationship between the virtual resource and the remaining virtual resources included in the set of virtual resources.

Abstract:
An apparatus in one embodiment comprises at least one processing device having a processor coupled to a memory configured to implement a plurality of virtual computing resources including a first subset providing a management network, a second subset providing partner zones, and a third subset providing customer service enclaves. The management network is configured to provision and control communication between partner zones and customer service enclaves. A given partner zone associated with a given partner is configured to provision partner-controlled services of the given partner to customer environments via the customer service enclaves. A given customer service enclave associated with a given customer is configured to activate the given partner for a given customer environment associated with the given customer to enable provisioning of the partner-controlled services of the given partner from the given partner zone to the given customer environment.
Systems And Methods For Securely Provisioning The Geographic Location Of Physical Infrastructure Elements In Cloud Computing Environments
Systems and methods relating to improved security in cloud computing environments are disclosed. According to one illustrative implementation, a method for provisioning physical geographic location of a physical infrastructure device associated with a hypervisor host is provided. Further, the method may include performing processing to obtain initial geo location data of the device, determining verified geo location data of the device by performing validation, via an attestation service component, of the initial geo location data to provide verified geo location data, and writing the verified geo location data into HSM or TPM space of the hypervisor host.
