Abstract
The claimed subject matter includes techniques for providing access to a cloud-based service from a learning management system (LMS). An example method includes receiving a request from a course instructor at a brokerage engine running as an extension of the LMS. The request is a request to configure a course to be provided by a cloud-based service. The request identifies assignments to be accessed by students through the LMS and provisions cloud computing resources of the cloud-based service to be assigned to the students for completion of the assignments. The method also includes performing the request using the cloud-based service by translating, by the brokerage engine, the request to be compatible with the cloud-based service.
