Abstract

Connectivity required for cloud computing services is provided by an SSL/TLS-based VPN client computer system operatively connected to a customer network of a cloud service customer. The VPN client instantiates an SSL/TLS-based VPN tunnel with an SSL/TLS-based VPN server operatively connected to a provider network of a cloud services provider. The VPN client facilitates digital data communications with one or more computing resources comprising the customer network by using a reverse network address translation (RNAT).
