ADMINISTRATION OF SERVICES EXECUTING IN CLOUD PLATFORM BASED DATACENTERS USING TOKEN WITH DATA STRUCTURE

A cloud infrastructure is configured and deployed for managing services executed on a cloud platform. The cloud infrastructure includes a control datacenter configured to communicate with one or more service datacenters. The service datacenter deploys one or more application programming interfaces (API's) associated with a service. The service datacenter also deploys an administration agent. The control datacenter hosts an engine that receives requests from users to perform administration operations by invoking the administration API's. In this manner, the control datacenter functions as a centralized control mechanism that effectively distributes administration operation requests as they are received from users to service datacenters that can service the requests. The cloud infrastructure provides an auditable, compliant and secure management system for administering services for distributed systems running in the cloud.
