Abstract
In a multi-cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms with each cloud platform comprising one or more nodes, a method maintains a decentralized metadata database framework, wherein each node comprises a decentralized metadata database component operatively coupled to each other decentralized metadata database component of the framework and wherein each of at least two of the decentralized metadata database components stores a set of metadata records corresponding to protected data stored across the plurality of cloud platforms. Further, the method manages one or more access requests directed to the protected data through one or more of the decentralized metadata database components of the framework.
