  • Patent number: 11544410
    Abstract: Systems and methods include, on a respective node of a plurality of nodes communicatively coupled to one another forming a cloud-based system, receiving a request to obtain data from the third-party cloud application. The systems and methods also include implementing a lightweight agent, on the respective node, that is configured to access data, of a third-party cloud application of the cloud-based services, via an application-only security token layer on the cloud-based system. The systems and methods further include utilizing the lightweight agent to access the third-party cloud application via the application-only security token and obtain data from the third-party cloud application. The systems and methods yet further include providing a response to the request based on the data obtained from the third-party cloud application.

  • Patent number: 10972370
    Abstract: Systems and methods include periodically sending a probe to a cloud application where the probe simulates user activity in the cloud application; receiving a response to the probe and determining one or more statistics of the cloud application based on the response; incorporating the one or more statistics in historical statistics; and causing a notification when any of the one or more statistics exceeds a defined threshold. The probe can be a cloud-based probe from a cloud-based system, and the systems and methods can also include receiving a response to an on-premises probe that was sent by a distributed agent that is separate from the cloud-based system; and incorporating one or more statistics associated with the response to the on-premises probe in the historical statistics.
