Abstract

A network system for implementing a cloud platform within a network to which a device defining a computing environment for a user has access comprises an application management module, a community management module, and a user enrollment portal. The application management module enables access to an abstract application associated with a concrete application defining an implementation of the abstract application for the computing environment. The community management module manages a community comprised of a user credential and the abstract application, the community defines at least one of: a policy, a management process, and a service, under which the user can access the abstract application. The user enrollment portal supports an enrollment of the user in the community from the device and orchestrates a policy management mechanism to support an enforcement of the policy under which the user has access to the concrete application from the device.
