  • Publication number: 20240126591
    Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a multi-cloud control plane (MCCP) in a first cloud infrastructure (included in a first cloud environment provided by a first cloud services provider) that enables services and/or resources provided in the first cloud infrastructure to be utilized by users of a second cloud environment, where the second cloud environment is different than the first cloud environment. The multi-cloud infrastructure enables a user associated with an account with a second cloud services provider to use, from the second cloud infrastructure, a first service from the set of one or more cloud services. The multi-cloud infrastructure creates a link between the account with the second cloud service provider and a tenancy created in the first cloud infrastructure for enabling using the first service by the user.

  • Publication number: 20240121233
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to systems and methods for automatic sign in upon account signup. Particularly, the present embodiments can utilize a federated login approach for automatic sign in upon account signup for a cloud infrastructure. Specifically, the signup and sign in service (also known as SOUP) and an identity provider portal can be configured such that the nodes are aware of each other as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) partners. After new account registration, the signup service can redirect the user browser to a cloud infrastructure console to start with a federated login flow, where a sign in service can issue a SAML authentication request, and redirects it to signup service. Responsive to validating the browser using a SAML authentication process, the browser can be automatically signed into the new account and allowed access the account relating to the cloud infrastructure service.
