SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ESTABLISHING CLOUD-BASED INSTANCES WITH INDEPENDENT PERMISSIONS

A method and system for facilitating management of cloud-based service instances, the system including one or more computing systems configured to communicate with at least one multi-tenant computing cloud, and configured to establish a cloud-based service instance hosted in the multi-tenant computing cloud and an access entity with permissions to access the established cloud-based service instance. The system can receive a request for the cloud-based service instance, the request authenticated as originating from a requestor; consult a set of access controls associated with the cloud-based service instance; determine, responsive to the consulting, if the request is allowable by the requestor; and enable, responsive to determining that the request is allowable by the requestor, the requestor to complete the request using a restricted access credential associated with the access entity.
