  • Patent number: 10574505
    Abstract: An endpoint broker to provide application launch endpoints from multiple data centers having different tenancy sets. Upon accessing a request for an application launch endpoint connection for a user, the broker selects a data center, from amongst multiple data centers that have different tenancy sets, that is to provide an endpoint in satisfaction of the request. The endpoint broker identifies an endpoint from the selected data center, and then associates the identified endpoint with the user. The user is then provided access to the identified endpoint using the association. Thus, a user is not restricted to having an endpoint from a single data center. If there are concerns with providing an endpoint from one data center, an endpoint may be provided from another data center in a manner that is transparent to the user.

  • Patent number: 10554646
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to provisioning private virtual machines in a public cloud and to managing private virtual machines hosted on a public cloud. In one scenario, a computer system receives authentication information for a private domain from an entity. The entity indicates that their private virtual machines are to be provisioned on a public cloud, where the entity's private domain is accessible using the authentication information. The computer system establishes a virtual network on the public cloud which is configured to host the entity's private virtual machines, where each virtual machine hosts remote applications. The computer system establishes an authenticated connection from the virtual network to the entity's private domain using the received authentication information and provides the entity's private virtual machines on the public cloud.

  • Patent number: 10079818
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to provisioning private virtual machines in a public cloud and to managing private virtual machines hosted on a public cloud. In one scenario, a virtual network is established at a public cloud environment based on a request received from a private domain, and an authenticated session is established between the virtual network and the private domain. A virtual machine is hosted within the virtual network. The virtual machine is configured to be accessible to a user authenticated to the virtual machine, and is configured to run an application using data received from the private domain. Private data is received from the private domain over the authenticated session, and the authenticated user is provided access to the application running at the virtual machine, including providing the authenticated user access to the private data.

  • Patent number: 9124569
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to authenticating a user to a remote application provisioning service. In one scenario, a client computer system receives authentication credentials from a user at to authenticate the user to a remote application provisioning service that provides virtual machine-hosted remote applications. The client computer system sends the received authentication credentials to an authentication service, which is configured to generate an encrypted token based on the received authentication credentials. The client computer system then receives the generated encrypted token from the authentication service, stores the received encrypted token and the received authentication credentials in a data store, and sends the encrypted token to the remote application provisioning service. The encrypted token indicates to the remote application provisioning service that the user is a valid user.
