Certificate checkin service
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a processing device executing a first certificate checkin service (CCS), a first set of usage data relating to content of a content provider consumed by a client of a cloud provider network;
aggregating, by the first CCS, the first set of usage data with a plurality of additional sets of usage data received from a plurality of downstream CCSs to form an aggregated set of usage data;
providing the aggregated set of usage data to a parent CCS for provisioning to a plurality of upstream parent CCSs for delivery of the aggregated set of usage data to the content provider;
providing, by the first CCS to the parent CCS, a request for entitlement data relating to the cloud provider network;
receiving, via each of the plurality of upstream parent CCSs, the entitlement data from the content provider;
storing, by the first CCS, the entitlement data; and
determining, by the processing device executing the first CCS, if the client is entitled to consume the content in view of the entitlement data.

Abstract
A method and system for a content provider to enable the consumption of content by properly entitled consumers (e.g., end-users, clients, customers) within a cloud provider network. A first certificate checkin service (CCS) executed by a processing device deployed in the cloud provider network receives a first set of usage data relating to content of a content provider consumed by a client of the cloud provider network. The first CCS provides the usage data to a communicatively coupled parent CCS. The first CCS provides the parent CCS with a request for entitlement data relating to the cloud provider, and stores the entitlement data received from the parent CCS. The entitlement data may be used by the first CCS to determine if the client is entitled to consume the content.
