  • Network buildout for cloud computing environments with data control policies
    Patent number: 10762218
    Abstract: Network buildout of cloud computing environments subject to different data control policies is performed in a manner that ensures compliance with the data control policies. A buildout service is located in a remote cloud computing environment separate from the cloud computing environments at which buildout is being performed. The buildout service implements workflows to manage different aspects of network buildout in the cloud computing environments. The buildout service does not have access to restricted data in the cloud computing environments, including access control data, such that the buildout service cannot directly interact with network devices. The buildout service issues requests for device configuration to hardware proxies in the cloud computing environments. In response to the requests, the hardware proxies obtain access control data to access and configure the network devices.
