Abstract: Methods, devices and systems for providing a robust and secure cloud-based platform for data processing and management are described. In an example, a method for improving the configurability and compliance of a cloud-computing environment comprising a plurality of zones includes receiving, at a configuration engine, a plurality of parameters and a plurality of security rules for each of the plurality of zones, creating, based on the plurality of parameters, a virtual network and one or more subnets for each of the plurality of zones, and updating, based on the plurality of security rules, one or more routing tables assigned to the one or more subnets to ensure traffic to and from a zone of the plurality of zones passes through a corresponding firewall of the zone.
