Secure systems and methods for hosted and edge site services

Abstract:

A system described herein may provide techniques for providing secure, configurable, network services via a dynamic gateway. Network services may be provided using virtual machines, pods, and/or containers. The dynamic gateway may provide hosted services and edge site services. The dynamic gateway may provide separate secure access to the hosted services and edge site services, utilizing different administrator credentials for the hosted services and edge site services. A host services orchestrator may receive usage information from the dynamic gateway. The host services orchestrator may generate a usage prediction based on the received information. The host services orchestrator may, based on the usage prediction, allocate provided services between edge site and hosted services and may further allocate hardware and/or software resources of the dynamic gateway. The dynamic gateway hardware resources may be managed by the hosted services and access may be provided to the edge site services via the hosted services.
