Abstract
A method involves receiving, at a Global Resource Catalog (GRC) controller, credentials for one or more target networks within a distributed cloud network. For each target network, the GRC controller uses a respective network access methodology associated with that target network to identify and store a first set of target network resources associated with that network at a GRC database. The GRC controller links or groups a second set of target network resources of the first set of target network resources in the GRC database based on target network resource dependencies determined by the GRC controller. The GRC controller updates the second set of target network resources in the GRC database based on a received event or at a scheduled interval. A distributed cloud network is then updated based on the second set of target network resources stored at the GRC database.
