Abstract
A system for accessing computing elements of a cloud computing infrastructure includes a dynamic host interface associated with an identity-based access management system. The dynamic host interface is configured to receive host catalogs from components of the cloud computing infrastructure, each host catalog including one or more host sets, each of the one or more host sets including references to one or more hosts, where each of the one or more hosts represents an addressable computing element. The system further includes a plugin-based hosts model in a memory, and being configured to receive, from the dynamic host interface, the host catalogs for identity-based access to the one or more host sets by a user of a client computer to address the addressable computing element represented by the host.
