Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing access to computing environments based on a multi-environment policy are provided. The a multi-environment policy is configurable to define rules that have provider-controlled and customer-controlled computing environment parameters for approving access to provider-controlled computing environments and customer-controlled computing environments. In operation, a request associated a computing environment are received. The computing environment is associated with a multi-environment policy. The multi-environment policy is configurable to define the rules based on access vectors having grouped computing environment aspects for control and visibility associated with accessing computing environments. Based on the request, a determination whether the request is for a provider-controlled or a customer-controlled computing environment is made. Based on the multi-environment policy, approval-request parameters of an approval-request are communicated to receive approval-request response values. And, based on receiving the approval-request response values, a request response indicating approval or denial of the request is communicated…
