Abstract
A disclosed method for managing access control in cloud based environment with on-premises and off-premises access portals includes storing account mapping information, indicative of an association between on-premises accounts off-premises accounts, to a lockbox in each of the plurality of clusters and deploying an off-premises agent in each of the clusters. One or more of the clusters may exist within a hyper-converged infrastructure system. Each off-premises agent may be configured to retrieve cluster access information indicative of access permissions for the on-premises node cluster and upload the cluster access information to an off-premises access control service. The access permissions for the on-premises cluster and the off-premises access permissions may comprise role based access permissions. The off-premises access control service is coupled to an off-premises portal and enables the off-premises portal to switch its access control permissions between on-premises access permissions and off-premises permissions in accordance with the targeted resource.
