1. A method implemented and residing within a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that is executed by one or more processors of a network to perform the method, comprising:
- evaluating a policy that defines how to select a particular processing environment, the particular processing environment is to provide a particular service requested by a principal;
ensuring the particular processing environment can instantiate the particular service initiated in the particular processing environment; and
making the particular service available for access to the principal.

Abstract
Techniques for dynamic cloud-based edge service computing are provided. A principal requests a service and a policy is evaluated to select a cloud processing environment capable of supplying the service from an optimal network location as defined by the policy. The selected cloud processing environment is configured to supply the requested service and to monitor and control access of the principal to the requested service from the selected cloud processing environment.

11. A method implemented and residing within a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that is executed by one or more processors of a network to perform the method, comprising:
-
inspecting network connections between a principal processing environment for a principal and multiple cloud processing environments capable of supplying a requested service to the principal; selecting one of the cloud processing environments based on evaluation of a policy; and supplying the requested service to the principal from the selected cloud processing environment. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A multiprocessor-implemented system, comprising:
-
an cloud edge policy evaluator implemented in a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and to execute on one or more processors of a network; and a cloud controller implemented in a non-transitory computer-readable medium and to execute on one or more processors of the network; the cloud edge policy evaluator is configured to selecting a cloud processing environment to supply to a requested service of a principal based on evaluation of a policy, the cloud controller is configured to send configuration and controlling directives to the cloud processing environment for controlling access of the principal to the requested service within the cloud processing environment. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
