Abstract
A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center connectivity management operation. The connectivity management operation includes: exchanging an entity token for a proxy access token and a device access token via a communication management system authorization service; using the proxy access token to authenticate the data center service to a mesh service proxy; establishing connectivity between the data center service and the mesh service proxy based upon the proxy access token; establishing a secure communication channel between the data center service and a data center asset based upon the device access token; providing the device access token to the data center asset from the data center service; validating the data center asset using the device access token; establishing an end-to-end secure connection between the data center service and the data center asset when the device access token has been validated; and, exchanging information between the data center service and the data center asset via the secure communication channel.
