Patent number: 11252228Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for creating and managing cloud servers and services using a multi-tenant multi-session catalog with machine-level isolation are described herein. In one or more embodiments, a cloud service provider may receive requests from one or more tenants for predefined numbers of servers. The cloud service provider may initialize a plurality of servers, wherein the plurality of servers is less than a sum of the totality of server requests, and create a catalog of unassigned servers of the plurality of servers. Responsive to a logon request from a user of a tenant, the cloud service provider may assign a server from the catalog of unassigned servers to the tenant, remove the server from the catalog of unassigned servers, broker the user of the tenant to connect to the server, and limit access to the server to only users of the tenant.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: Citrix Systems, Inc.Inventors: Juan Rivera, Leo C. Singleton, IV
