Methods, systems and computer program products for user-specific curation of applications from heterogeneous application sources. Multiple components are interconnected to perform user-specific curation operations. The user-specific curation operations comprise accessing application metadata corresponding to a plurality of applications from a plurality of application sources. The application sources may be heterogeneous and may be situated at local sites or at remote sites. A set of rules are applied to the application metadata to determine if one or more applications are authorized for use by a particular user or group. Publication attributes that control accessibility by a particular user or particular group of users are associated with the authorized applications. Based on the publication attributes as they apply to a particular user, one or more curated applications are selected from the authorized applications. A user-specific application marketplace is presented in a user interface to show a portion of the user-specific curated applications.
