Cloud to on-premises windows registry settings

A method for stateless modification of operating system registry data across network boundaries, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a first device having one or more processors within a first network, a first request to apply modifications to an operating system registry to transition from a first state to a second state, the operating system registry comprising one or more settings for an operating system of a second device within a second network different from the first network, the operating system registry of the second device configured to be modified locally from within the second network;
• maintaining, by the first device, in a queue, a dataset representing the modifications to apply to the operating system registry of the second device;
• receiving, by the first device on the first network, a second request from the second device on the second network to retrieve the modifications of the first request received by the first device to apply to the operating system registry of the second device from within the second network;
• transmitting, by the first device to the second device responsive to the second request, authentication information to cause the second device to authenticate the first device to permit modification of the operating system registry for the operating system of the second device from the first device;
• and
• transmitting, by the first device responsive to the authentication of the first device, the dataset from the queue to cause the second device to apply, in order of receipt by the queue, the modifications to the one or more settings of the operating system registry for the operating system of the second device to transition from the first state to the second state.
