Abstract
Embodiments of a multi-tenant cloud system include a first data center adapted to authenticate a first plurality of registered clients and located in a first geographic area, and a second data center adapted to authenticate a second plurality of registered clients and located in a second geographic area that is different from the first geographic area. The first data center receives a request from a first client of the first plurality of registered clients to access a resource of the second data center and validates the request from the first client and issues a global access token. The second data center receives the request with the global access token. A cloud gate at the second data center, based on the global access token, validates the request and provides the resource to the first client.
