Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are described herein that enable a service provider to manage cloud resources deployed to different customer environments, residing in different tenants of a cloud services platform using a single access token. The service provider publishes templates that specify service provider permissions with respect to cloud resource deployments. By deploying such a template, a customer authorizes the service provider to manage cloud resources deployed to the customer's environment. In particular, the deployment causes an access token granted to the service provider to be associated with the customer cloud resources. When the service provider logs into his environment, the access token is provided to the cloud resource manager.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to distributing processing tasks from the reduced-performance computer system to at least one other computer system, to processing, at one computer system, a distributed task received from a reduced-performance computer system, and to establishing a simulation environment for testing distributed computing framework functionality. In an embodiment, a reduced-performance computer system monitors computing tasks to determine a processing resource usage level for each task. The computing tasks are part of a software application that is running on the reduced-performance computer system. The reduced-performance computer system determines that one of the monitored tasks is using processing resources beyond a specified threshold level. The reduced-performance computer system sends the task to another computer system that receives, processes and returns the results of the tasks to the reduced-performance computer system.
