Policy-driven data locality and residency

摘要

A method and system for policy-driven locality management of routes in cloud-based multi-tenant systems is disclosed. Policies are provided to end user devices to specify one or more locality and residency to either favor or avoid. Routes are provided to each end user device for the policies. When an application specifies a policy to use for a cloud service, the appropriate route(s) are provided to provide connectivity. Testing of the route is performed for compliance to provide telemetry. Where non-compliance is found, the routes are updated and distributed to the various end user devices.
