US Patent 11658916 Simple integration of an on-demand compute environment

Disclosed are a system and method of integrating an on-demand compute environment into a local compute environment. The method includes receiving a request from an administrator to integrate an on-demand compute environment into a local compute environment and, in response to the request, automatically integrating local compute environment information with on-demand compute environment information to make available resources from the on-demand compute environment to requesters of resources in the local compute environment such that policies of the local environment are maintained for workload that consumes on-demand compute resources.
