Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for selecting and managing a public cloud-computing network to host a client's account information are provided. Initially, the client issues a request to a coordination engine, which understands rules language of various public clouds, to update the account information residing on a target cloud. The target cloud was previously selected from the various public clouds as a function of desirable criteria specified by the client in light of properties (e.g., pricing, security, and reliability) dynamically abstracted from the public clouds. When addressing the request, the coordination engine extracts command(s) from the request and automatically translates the command(s) consistent with the rules language of the target cloud. Upon delivery to the target cloud, the translated command(s) affect reading of or writing to the account information. Accordingly, the client is absolved from converting instructions into a format that is expected by the target cloud.
