Cloud of Virtual Clouds for Increasing Isolation Among Execution Domains
First Claim
1. A method for providing a cloud environment for provisioning a guest virtual machine instance, wherein the method comprises:
- selecting at least one machine from a collection of machines as a management node, wherein the at least one machine includes a hypervisor enabled with nested virtualization capability;
deploying a plurality of cloud managers on each management node;
selecting at least one machine from the collection of machines as a host node;
to deploying a plurality of level two hypervisors on each host node;
forming a plurality of virtual clouds, wherein each virtual cloud contains at least one of the plurality of cloud managers and one of the plurality of level two hypervisors; and
provisioning, via the at least one cloud manager, at least one guest virtual machine instance on top of the at least one level two hypervisors;
wherein at least one of the steps is carried out by a computer device.
