1. A method, comprising: interrogating, by a computer, a resource infrastructure to acquire for resource identities associated with resources within the resource infrastructure and to determine a stage of readiness for each resource within the resource infrastructure, wherein the resource infrastructure is a hardware and software infrastructure and the resources are hardware and software resources; and managing policy specifications assigned to workload identities for workloads and assigned to requestor identities for requestors of the workloads, and each workload identity and each requester identity formulated from that identity's one or more identifiers and secrets that provide a statement of roles and permissions; and provisioning, by the computer, the resources for access within the workloads based on requests from requestors and enforcement of policy specifications and identity-based constraints, wherein each workload identity and requestor identity for each requestor are formulated with a statement of roles and permissions for each identity relative to the resource identities, and wherein each workload is one of: a Virtual Machine (VM), an Operating System (OS), a cloud computing environment, a hardware device, a software agent, and a software application, wherein provisioning further includes reserving, by a workload scheduler processing on the computer, the resources by annotating metadata of each resource for a specific use and annotating each resource with a the stage of readiness and instantiate a hypervisor of the resource infrastructure to change the stage of readiness within an acceptable threshold to handle the workload.
