Techniques for implementing cloud services of a cloud service provider in a dedicated user account environment in a distributed computing system are disclosed. In some example embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: receiving, by a management system of a cloud service provider, a user request for creation of an instance of an application platform of the cloud service provider in a user environment within a distributed computing system, the user environment being dedicated to a user account hosted by the distributed computing system, the user request comprising credential data configured to provide the management system with limited permission for accessing the user environment, the limited permission restricting the management system from full administrative privileges in accessing the user environment; and deploying, by the management system, the instance of the application platform to a workload cluster in the user environment using the credential data to access the user environment.

Implementing cloud services in user account environment

In an example embodiment, an additional interface customer resource definition (CRD), which operates in conjunction with the normal CRD, is utilized. The interface CRD may be called a service CRD. The service CRD provides an abstraction of the original CRD by abstracting away all technical details that no other services should depend upon. The service CRD provides a fa&#xe7;ade to the original CRD. Both are kept in sync by a component called an operator, which infers the specification of the original CRD on the basis of the specification of a given service CRD. Furthermore, status updates sent to the original CRD that are relevant to the dependent services are mirrored back to the corresponding service CRD. Correspondingly, status updates with technical details that are too specific for the dependent services are not mirrored back.
