Point of origin capture for data compliance management in cloud computing environment

摘要

In a cloud computing environment comprising a plurality of cloud platforms within which an enterprise can store at least one data set, the method maintains a distributed ledger system with a plurality of nodes, wherein a given one of the plurality of cloud platforms is operatively coupled to a given one of the plurality of nodes of the distributed ledger system. Further, the method manages data compliance for the at least one data set in association with the distributed ledger system by storing transaction data in the distributed ledger system that represents geographic point of origin metadata associated with the at least one data set.
