Abstract: Some embodiments of an entitlement model have been presented. In one embodiment, a centralized server distributes copies of an operating system from a software vendor to a set of virtual guests of a virtual host running on a physical computing machine. The centralized server and the physical computing machine are coupled to each other within an internal network of a customer of the software vendor, whereas the centralized server has access to the software vendor external to the internal network of the customer. The centralized server may interact with a hypervisor of the physical computing machine to determine what type of license of the operating system the virtual host has and a number of copies of the operating system requested by the virtual guests.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a request of a user to perform an operation with respect to a first resource, in response to the request, determining, in view of a resource-based master data structure, a first resource-based permission data structure associated with the first resource, and accessing the first resource-based permission data structure to identify a first resource entry associated with the user.

Abstract: A method and system for providing an integrated application that includes software modules coupled to a message bus. The software modules include applications of different degrees of complexity and different number of components, such as management applications, service applications, and other similar applications. A computer system receives a first input that selects a user interface (UI) to access the integrated application. The selected UI can be a specific UI associated with a software module, or an orchestrator UI that unifies individual styles of the specific UIs. The computer system receives, via the selected UI, a second input to access a destination module among the software modules. If the selected UI is the orchestrator UI, the second input is forwarded to the destination module via the message bus. If the selected UI is a specific UI, the second input is sent to the destination module via the selected specific UI.

Abstract: A first request to change a permission of a first user for accessing a first resource is received via a service application programming interface (API) of an authorization server. In response to the first request, a first resource-based permission data structure associated with the first resource is accessed to identify an entry associated with the first user, wherein the first resource-based permission data structure has a plurality of entries corresponding to a plurality of users, respectively, each user being associated with one or more permissions for accessing the first resource. Further, one or more permissions in the identified entry associated with the first user are updated.

Abstract: A first request is received, at a service application programming interface (API) of an authorization server, to change a permission of a first role for accessing a first resource. In response to the first request, a first role-based permission data structure associated with the first role is accessed to identify an entry associated with the first resource, where the first role-based permission data structure includes entries corresponding to resources, respectively. Each resource is associated with one or more permissions for a user of the first role to access the corresponding resource. One or more permissions are updated in the identified entry associated with the first resource.

Abstract: Some embodiments of multiple organization support in a networked system have been presented. In one embodiment, a centralized server manages a networked system, which includes the centralized server and a set of computing machines coupled to each other within an internal network of a customer. The centralized server segregates data within the networked system by grouping data into the concept of an organization created by the customer in order to isolate the organizations.

Abstract: Some embodiments of virtualization management using a centralized server have been presented. In one embodiment, a centralized server obtains metadata of an operating system and information on provisioning computing resources from a software vendor. The centralized server is deployed within an internal network of a customer of the software vendor, where the internal network further includes a set of at least one physical machine. The centralized server may further generate a graphical user interface to allow users of the centralized server to manage a set of virtual machines running on the set of at least one physical machine. The set of virtual machines may include at least one virtual host and at least one virtual guest.
