Abstract

A method, system, and/or computer program product establishes and utilizes a tenant-specific log for events related to a cloud-based service. A metamodel is created for a cloud-based service provided to a specific tenant of a cloud. The metamodel describes types of resources that are providing the cloud-based service that the specific tenant desires to monitor. In response to the cloud-based service being executed, the metamodel is used to identify a set of resources that are actually providing the cloud-based service for the specific tenant. A tenant-specific log is established to tracks events that occur on each actual resource from the set of resources, and records access to the specific unit of hardware by an authorized user of the specific unit of hardware. Operations related to the cloud-based service are transferred from the specific unit of hardware to a local device that is available only to the specific tenant.
