System and method for secure multitenant operations of a distributed computing cluster

A non-transitory computer readable medium in a computing device that has a processor, the computing device coupled to a distributed computing cluster, the non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions for secure operator onboarding for secure multitenant operations of the distributed computing cluster, the instructions causing the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a network service call from a client computer containing credentials of an operator, in which the client computer is located in a network security domain coupled to the distributed computing cluster;
• initiating the network service call to a centralized directory and authentication server, located in the network security domain, to authenticate the operator using the transmitted credentials;
• presenting a user interface to collect a plurality of configurable attestations from the operator;
• storing the configurable attestations to a data store in the centralized directory server;
• initiating a series of asynchronous operations for the onboarding;
• and
• updating a metadata store in the distributed computing cluster to indicate to the operator that onboarding is completed.

A method of creating an ingest job agent for secure multitenant operations of a distributed computing cluster, comprising:

• receiving a network service call from a client computer containing credentials of an operator, in which the client computer is located in a network security domain coupled to the distributed computing cluster;
• initiating the network service call to a centralized directory server, located in the network security domain, to authenticate the operator using the transmitted credentials;
• presenting a user interface to collect a plurality of ingest job agent configuration options from the operator;
• storing the ingest job agent configuration options to a data store in the centralized directory server;
• initiating a series of asynchronous operations to create the ingest job agent;
• and
• updating a metadata store in the distributed computing cluster to indicate to the operator that the creation of the ingest job agent is completed.
