Patent ID: 11868829

Abstract:
Techniques are provided for remote orchestration of workflows performed by processing circuitry of a cloud infrastructure. A method includes: (a) executing a workflow administration module (WAM) on the processing circuitry of the cloud infrastructure; (b) accessing, by the WAM, a workflow database stored within the cloud infrastructure to determine that a workflow is scheduled for execution; (c) issuing a command from the WAM to remote customer infrastructure (RCI) external to the cloud infrastructure, the command instructing the RCI to execute the workflow on the RCI, the command including information about the location of the workflow; (d) receiving metadata by the WAM from the RCI regarding execution of the workflow on the RCI; and (e) storing the received metadata in the workflow database in connection with the workflow. A corresponding method is provided for use at the RCI. Corresponding computer program products, apparatuses, and systems are also provided.
