Abstract:
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include mapping an internal network to identify various nodes of the internal network. The method may further include determining where at least some of the internal network nodes identified in the mapping are located. The method may also include receiving a request for metadata service information from an application hosted on a cloud server instance. The method may then include providing a response to the received request for metadata service information if the determined location of the requesting node is approved or preventing a response to the received request for metadata service information if the determined location of the requesting node is not approved. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
