Abstract
In an architecture of a virtualized computing system plugins are less tightly integrated with a core user interface of a management server. Rather than being installed and executed at the management server as local plugins, the plugins are served as remote plugins from a plugin server, and may be accessed by a web client through a reverse proxy at the management server. Plugin operations may be executed at the plugin server and/or invoked from a user device where the web client resides. Furthermore, a plugin sandbox and other isolation configurations are provided at the user device, so as to further control access capability and interaction of the plugins.
