Abstract
A system can maintain a first data center in a first physical location that comprises first compute hardware, and a second data center in a second physical location that comprises second compute hardware. The system can establish an overlay network that spans the first data center and the second data center. The system can establish a group of virtualized volume identifiers that spans the first data center and the second data center, and that virtualizes physical storage volumes. The system can determine whether to process a customer virtualized workload on the first data center or on the second data center to produce a selected location, wherein the customer virtualized workload is configured to be processed on the first data center and to be processed on the second data center. The system can process the customer virtualized workload at the selected location.
