The processor also may execute an instruction respective to determining the meaning of the human gesture, wherein at least a portion of the instruction is dependent upon the meaning of the human gesture.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for managing a plurality of VPN tunnels between a first cloud and a second cloud in a hybrid cloud environment is described. In a first virtual private network (VPN) manager a request is received from a first cloud application resident in the first cloud. The request includes a first set of requirements for a first VPN tunnel in the plurality of VPN tunnels. The VPN manager sends a first VPN manager request to a first system in a first cloud, wherein the first system creates the first VPN tunnel according to the first set of requirements. The VPN manager receives a request from a second cloud application resident in the first cloud. The request includes a second set of requirements for a VPN tunnel in the plurality of VPN tunnels. The VPN manager sends a second VPN manager request to the system in a first cloud, wherein the second VPN manager request contains the second set of requirements.
