A computer implemented method includes granting a subscriber client access to a cloud service-based resource group within a subscriber controlled computing environment. The subscriber controlled computing environment has a virtual network. A direct network connection is established via the virtual network to a domain controller in the subscriber controlled computing environment. The virtual network is extended to a subscriber client virtual machine in a producer cloud service. The subscriber client virtual machine is then joined with the virtual network. Access to the subscriber client virtual machine is provided via the subscriber controlled computing environment and virtual network.

Virtual machine provisioning and directory service management

Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing virtualization operations—including an activate operation, suspend operation, and resume operation for virtualization in a virtualization system. In operation, a unique identifier and file metadata associated with a first file stored in a cache engine. The cache engine manages the first file of an application running on the virtual machine to circumvent writing file data of the first file to an OS disk during a suspend operation of the virtual machine and circumvents reading file data of the first file from the OS disk during a resume operation of the virtual machine. Based on a resume operation associated with the virtual machine and the file metadata, file data of the first file that is stored in the cache engine is accessed. The file data is communicated to the virtual machine, the virtual machine is associated with the suspend and the resume operation.

Virtualization engine for virtualization operations in a virtualization system

A computer implemented method includes granting a tenant administrator client machine access to a cloud hosted tenant service joined to a directory service. A bulk token for the tenant is obtained in response to a request received from the tenant administrator client machine. An identifier of an authorized tenant client to the cloud hosted tenant service is received and results in the provisioning of a tenant client virtual machine in a cloud service for the authorized tenant client in accordance with a specified provisioning package associated with the bulk token. The tenant client virtual machine is then joined to the directory service. On receipt of an authorized client token at the cloud hosted tenant service from a tenant client machine, the tenant client machine is provided a connection to the tenant client virtual machine.

Techniques are disclosed for algorithm execution output cache. A remote presentation session server conducting concurrent remote presentation sessions with a plurality of clients generates a signature for each image that it is to send to a client. The remote presentation server also maintains a signature table comprising pairs of signatures and compressed images. Each signature and compressed image pair corresponds to input data (i.e. the signature was generated from an image and the compressed image was generated from that same image). The remote presentation session server checks the signature against the signature table. Where the remote presentation session server determines that there is a match between the signature and a signature in the signature table, it sends the client the compressed image that corresponds to the signature in the signature table that generated the match. In doing so, the remote presentation session server may avoid redundantly compressing the second image.
