Abstract
In a cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms within which an enterprise can store at least one data set, the method maintains a distributed ledger system with a plurality of nodes, wherein a given one of the plurality of cloud platforms is operatively coupled to a given one of the plurality of nodes of the distributed ledger system. Further, the method manages data compliance for the at least one data set in association with the distributed ledger system by storing transaction data in the distributed ledger system that represents geographic point of origin metadata associated with the at least one data set.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- in a cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms within which an enterprise can store at least one data set, maintaining a distributed ledger system with a plurality of nodes, wherein a given one of the plurality of cloud platforms is operatively coupled to a given one of the plurality of nodes of the distributed ledger system;
- and
- managing data compliance for the at least one data set in association with the distributed ledger system by storing transaction data in the distributed ledger system that represents geographic point of origin metadata associated with the at least one data set;
- wherein the method is implemented via one or more processing devices each comprising a processor coupled to a memory.
An article of manufacture comprising a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having stored therein program code of one or more software programs, wherein the program code when executed by at least one processing device causes said at least one processing device to perform steps of:
- in a cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms within which an enterprise can store at least one data set, maintaining a distributed ledger system with a plurality of nodes, wherein a given one of the plurality of cloud platforms is operatively coupled to a given one of the plurality of nodes of the distributed ledger system;
- and
- managing data compliance for the at least one data set in association with the distributed ledger system by storing transaction data in the distributed ledger system that represents geographic point of origin metadata associated with the at least one data set.
A system comprising:
- one or more processing devices operatively coupled to one or more memories configured to:
- in a cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms within which an enterprise can store at least one data set, maintain a distributed ledger system with a plurality of nodes, wherein a given one of the plurality of cloud platforms is operatively coupled to a given one of the plurality of nodes of the distributed ledger system;
- and
- manage data compliance for the at least one data set in association with the distributed ledger system by storing transaction data in the distributed ledger system that represents geographic point of origin metadata associated with the at least one data set.
