Policy Based Requesting/Approval System Across Multiple Hybrid Clouds

An information handling system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a memory coupled to at least one of the processors;
• a set of computer program instructions stored in the memory and executed by at least one of the processors in order to perform actions of:
• receiving a scaling request corresponding to an application that comprises a plurality of workloads executing on at least a first cloud environment and a second cloud environment, wherein the first cloud environment is managed by a first service provider and the second cloud environment is managed by a second service provider;
• evaluating the scaling request against both a first set of policies corresponding to the first service provider and against a second set of policies corresponding to the second service provider;
• and
• scaling, in response to the evaluating, one or more first resources on the first cloud environment and one or more second resources on the second cloud environment to fulfill the scaling request.

A computer program product stored in a computer readable storage medium, comprising computer program code that, when executed by an information handling system, causes the information handling system to perform actions comprising:

• receiving a scaling request corresponding to an application that comprises a plurality of workloads executing on at least a first cloud environment and a second cloud environment, wherein the first cloud environment is managed by a first service provider and the second cloud environment is managed by a second service provider;
• evaluating the scaling request against both a first set of policies corresponding to the first service provider and against a second set of policies corresponding to the second service provider;
• and
• scaling, in response to the evaluating, one or more first resources on the first cloud environment and one or more second resources on the second cloud environment to fulfill the scaling request.
