Abstract
In one embodiment, an edge device of a network maintains intermediate certificates derived from root certificates of different cloud services that identify the edge device to those different cloud services. The edge device receives identity information for a particular device in the network. The edge device generates, using at least one of its intermediate certificates and the identity information for the particular device, one or more local digital identity certificates for the particular device. The edge device causes the particular device to be onboarded to a target cloud service from among the different cloud services, in part by providing the one or more local digital identity certificates to the particular device and to the target cloud service.
