Abstract

See full text

A multi-tenant cloud native system for providing network connections between a plurality of gateway endpoints using tags and secure tunnels. The system includes an end-user device, a cloud control plane, and a cloud provider. The end-user device includes a client endpoint providing a request for establishing a network connection with a service endpoint of the gateway endpoint. Zones and tenants are identified from the request. Tags are assigned to the gateway endpoints in the network based on a tag policy. Connectivity of the tags and tunnels between the gateway endpoint are identified from network traffic of devices corresponding to the gateway endpoints. A database of devices with device addresses is identified to determine routes between the gateway endpoints. A secure tunnel is determined from the plurality of tunnels based on the tags corresponding to the tenant and the network connection is established via the secure tunnel using the routes.
