In an example, a method of managing access to resources managed by heterogeneous resource servers having different policy document formats in a cloud services environment includes obtaining, at an identity and access management (IAM) service, a policy document describing privileges of an end user with respect to accessing at least one resource of the resources managed by a resource server of the heterogeneous resource servers; sending the policy document from the IAM service to an resource server endpoint designated by the resource server for validation; storing, by the IAM service, the policy document in a datastore in response to a determination by the resource server endpoint that the policy document is valid; and generating, by the IAM service, an indication that the policy document is invalid in response to a determination by the resource server endpoint that the policy document is invalid.

System and computer-implemented method for enabling end-user license enforcement of an application in a hybrid cloud system use data associated with at least one component of a public cloud computing environment of the hybrid cloud system to detect an environment-changing event involving at least one processing entity in the hybrid cloud system. Once the environment-changing event is detected, one or more operating environment identifiers are injected into the processing entity. The injected operating environment identifiers can then be accessed by an application in the processing entity to perform an end-user license check for enforcement.

An example method of monitoring elements in a cloud computing system includes partitioning an address space of a hierarchy of service elements into a plurality of address subspaces managed by a respective plurality of processing nodes. The method further includes receiving time series data from a service element, routing the time series data to a first processing node based on an address of the service element within the hierarchy, and processing the time series data at the first processing node to update metric data maintained for the service element. The method further includes routing the time series data to a second processing node based on an address of a parent service element above the service element in the hierarchy, and processing the time series data at the second processing node to update metric data maintained for the parent service element.

A cloud computing system includes services that provide virtual cloud computing resources. The service publishes service events that are transformed into periodic rating data as per centralized, pluggable, service-specific business rules. The cloud computing system includes a metering service that reduces network traffic for billing using a carry-forward mechanism that remembers a last-known rating state. Anomalies in the last-known state, such as, from lost or duplicate service events, can be detected via a reconciliation protocol between the metering service and cloud computing services.

A Java based server is disclosed for providing streaming data. Streaming data is received in a publisher interface and processed to generate Java messages describing real time updated. One application of the Java based server is to provide streaming data for business process.
