Abstract
In one example, a cloud computing environment may be probed to detect an actual topology including connectivity between infrastructure security nodes and management nodes. Each management node may execute a corresponding centralized management service. Each infrastructure security node may execute a corresponding infrastructure security service that handles at least one infrastructure security function. Further, a set of candidate topologies may be generated based on the actual topology. Each candidate topology may indicate a way to replicate the infrastructure security service into the management nodes. Furthermore, a replication partner associated with each of the management nodes may be determined based on a selection of one of the candidate topologies. An operation to deploy the infrastructure security service on the management nodes may be executed based on the selected one of the candidate topologies and the determined replication partners to form an embedded linked mode architecture.
