  • a processor; and

    a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory comprises instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to;

    determine a level of data privacy associated with a user of the user resource;

    responsive to the level of data privacy indicating a first level of dedicated computing resources, integrate the user resource into a first logical design that includes a shared regional infrastructure management (RIM) device, wherein the shared RIM device is shared between multiple user resources;

    responsive to the level of data privacy indicating a second level of dedicated computing resources, integrate the user resource into a second logical design that includes a dedicated RIM device, wherein the dedicated RIM device is dedicated for use only by the user resource;

    responsive to the user failing to require any level of data privacy, determine if the user resource has at least one associated unique Internet protocol (IP) address;

    responsive to the user resource failing to have the at least one associated unique IP address, integrate the user resource into the first logical design;

    responsive to the user resource having the at least one associated unique IP address, determine if the user resource utilizes a predefined percentage of a capacity of a point of deployment (POD) device; and

    responsive to the user resource utilizing the predefined percentage of the capacity of the POD device, integrate the user resource into a third logical design that includes at least one shared hub, the shared RIM device, a shared spoke device, and a dedicated point of deployment (POD) device.
