VIRTUAL ACCESS TO NETWORK SERVICES

摘要

Methods, systems, and computer readable storage media for providing virtual access to network services. A virtual storage layer contains reference objects configured to reference network services stored in a network computing environment. Network clients access the reference objects through a resource interface based on a resource identifier associated with the virtual storage layer. Initiation of the virtual service by a network client invokes the service in a native computing environment of the service.

主权项

1. A system for providing virtual access to at least one service, the system comprising:
a virtual storage layer arranged in a network computing environment, the virtual storage layer comprising at least one virtual container associated with at least one virtual service; at least one reference object stored in the at least one virtual container and configured to reference the at least one service associated with the at least one virtual service; and at least one resource interface configured to provide access to the at least one virtual service to at least one client of the network computing environment, wherein the system initiates the at least one virtual service responsive to receiving initiation input from the at least one client via the at least one reference object, the at least one virtual service being configured to invoke the at least one service to operate in a native computing environment of the at least one service.
