Abstract
The claimed subject matter includes techniques for providing access to a cloud-based service. An example method includes generating a user interface form compatible with an application program, the user interface form being displayable via a user interface of the application program. The method also includes receiving a user request at a brokerage engine that runs as an extension of the application program through the user interface form. The method further includes identifying a cloud-based service to perform the request, and performing the request using the cloud-based service by translating the request to be compatible with the identified cloud-based service. The method also includes generating a new user interface form integrated with the user interface of application program, the new user interface form populated with data from the cloud-based service.
