METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING AUTHENTICATION CREDENTIALS FROM A PROXY SERVER TO A VIRTUALIZED COPUTING ENVIRONMENT TO ACCESS A REMOTE RESOURCE

摘要

The present invention relates to a system for providing a modified URL from a proxy server to a virtualized computing environment attempting to access a remote resource. The modified URL may contain information which allows a proxy server which receives a request for the URL to generate a request for the remote resource where the request includes any state information necessary to access the resource. After transmitting the request, the proxy server may receive the requested resource; and transmit the resource to the application.
