Abstract

Techniques for implementing cloud services of a cloud service provider in a dedicated user account environment in a distributed computing system are disclosed. In some example embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: receiving, by a management system of a cloud service provider, a user request for creation of an instance of an application platform of the cloud service provider in a user environment within a distributed computing system, the user environment being dedicated to a user account hosted by the distributed computing system, the user request comprising credential data configured to provide the management system with limited permission for accessing the user environment, the limited permission restricting the management system from full administrative privileges in accessing the user environment; and deploying, by the management system, the instance of the application platform to a workload cluster in the user environment using the credential data to access the user environment.
