Abstract

A device can receive a request to deploy a container to provide a service. The request can include information identifying a set of parameters associated with the container. The device can validate the request using the information identifying the set of parameters. The device can deploy the container on a back-end host. The back-end host can lack connectivity to an external network. The device can receive a first indication that the container was successfully deployed on the back-end host. The device can deploy a proxy container on a front-end host. The front-end host can have connectivity to the external network. The device can receive a second indication that the proxy container was successfully deployed on the front-end host. The device can provide a third indication. The third indication can indicate that the container was successfully deployed.
