Abstract

An approach is provided in which an information handling system receives a scaling request corresponding to an application that includes multiple workloads executing on a first cloud environment and a second cloud environment. The first cloud environment is managed by a first service provider and the second cloud environment is managed by a second service provider. The information handling system evaluates the scaling request against a first set of policies corresponding to the first service provider and against a second set of policies corresponding to the second service provider. In turn, the information handling system scales, in response to the evaluating, one or more first resources on the first cloud environment and one or more second resources on the second cloud environment to fulfill the scaling request.
