Abstract
The disclosed technology teaches initializing an application instance using a SaaS model in a project implemented on a cloud-based computing service, including running a configuration engine that links a service provider for SaaS application to set configuration parameters for the project and initializing the project in which an application instance will be built, then removing the authorization of the configuration engine to access the project and removing access to set the parameters. The technology also includes running a SaaS application infrastructure builder autonomously, without the service provider having access to the builder, to build the instance, and then delivering the application as a SaaS service. The method further includes running a SaaS maintenance service, under sovereign control of a customer organization, to pull from the service provider and install in the project, maintenance updates for the instance, without exposing data secured by the customer organization to the service provider.
