This disclosure describes systems, devices, and techniques for migrating virtualized resources between the main region and edge locations. Live migration enables virtualized resources to remain operational during migration. Edge locations are typically separated from secure data centers via the Internet, a direct connection, or some other intermediate network. Accordingly, to place virtualized resources within an edge location, the virtualized resources must be migrated over a secure communication tunnel that can protect virtualized resource data during transmission over the intermediate network. The secure communication tunnel may have limited data throughput. To efficiently utilize resources of the secure communication tunnel, and to reduce the impact of migrations on virtualized resource operations, virtualized resource migrations may be carefully scheduled in advance. For instance, virtualized resources may be selectively migrated at times-of-day in which they are likely to be relatively idle, or at times when the communication tunnel is predicted to have sufficient bandwidth.

In a wireless communication network, a Unified Data Repository (UDR) is served by a UDR Message Function (UMF). The UMF receives a UDR message that relates to a User Equipment (UE) for delivery to a network function. The UMF writes the current UDR message to a UDR message queue for the UE. The UMF determines when the UDR message queue stores multiple UDR messages that relate to the UE. When the current UDR message is the only message in the message queue for the UE, the UMF transfers the current UDR message to the destination network function. When the message queue for the UE stores multiple UDR messages for the UE, the UMF stops message transfer from the queue and prioritizes the UDR messages in the message queue. The UMF restarts message transfer from the queue and transfers the UDR messages to the network functions based on the prioritization. The UDR message queue stores the UDR messages under control of the UMF.

Systems and methods herein provide for a proxy infrastructure. In the proxy infrastructure, a network element (e.g., a supernode) is connected with a plurality of exit nodes. At one of a plurality of messenger units of the proxy infrastructure, a proxy protocol request is received directly from a client computing device. The proxy protocol request specifies a request and a target. In response the proxy protocol request, a selection is made between one between one of the plurality of exit nodes. A message with the request is sent from the messenger to the supernode connected with the selected exit node. Finally, the message is sent from the supernode to the selected exit node to forward the request to the target.

Systems and methods include detecting whether a monitored network has a unique configuration; responsive to the unique configuration, determining an ingress point for flow samples; and utilizing the determined ingress point for the flow samples to generate a traffic report for the monitored network. The unique configuration is an inter-Autonomous System (AS) option-C Virtual Private Network (VPN) network where control and data planes are asymmetric. The approach provides traffic projection based on the flow samples with the asymmetric flows.

A system and method for orchestrating distributed operations to be executed in a distributed computing system with multiple virtual infrastructures uses a distributed operation descriptor to find any Cloud-Native Network Function (CNF) entry in the distributed operation descriptor. For each found CNF entry, a CNF descriptor is retrieved from a CNF catalog and parsed to find an overridable property for a CNF described in the CNF descriptor for which a property override is defined. Then, a target virtual infrastructure is selected from the multiple virtual infrastructures to perform a lifecycle management operation of the CNF. Instructions are then transmitted to a local operator in the target virtual infrastructure with the property override so that information regarding the CNF is transmitted to a local orchestrator of the target virtual infrastructure to perform the lifecycle management operation of the CNF at the target virtual infrastructure using the property override.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing cloud-based services securely to on-premises networks or other infrastructure. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for enriching first-party data (e.g., data collected directly by an on-premises server) stored within on-premises networks by enabling the on-premises networks to retrieve and process third-party data stored on cloud-based networks. As a technical benefit, cloud-based services can be performed on the first-party data within the on-premises networks.

Techniques discussed herein relate to providing composable edge devices. In some embodiments, a user request specifying a set of services to be executed at a cloud-computing edge device may be received by a computing device operated by a cloud computing provider. A manifest may be generated in accordance with the user request. The manifest may specify a configuration for the cloud-computing edge device. Another request can be received specifying the same or a different set of services to be executed at another edge device. Another manifest which specifies the configuration for that edge device may be generated and subsequently used to provision the request set of services on that device. In this manner, manifests can be used to compose the platform to be utilized at any given edge device.

A network device is configured to receive an inbound packet from a first server device via a network tunnel, the first inbound packet including an outer header, a virtual private network (VPN) label, an inner header, and a data payload, the inner header including an inner source IP address of a source virtual machine. The processors are also configured to determine a first tunnel identifier, determine, based on the inner source IP address, a second tunnel identifier associated with a second server device hosting the source virtual machine, compare the second tunnel identifier with the first tunnel identifier to determine whether the tunnel on which the first inbound packet was received is the same as a tunnel used for forwarding traffic to the source virtual machine, and drop the inbound packet when the second tunnel identifier does not match the first tunnel identifier.

Web-enabled routers are remotely and securely administered in a centralized fashion. A router receives a configuration profile from a dedicated web domain that maintains a repository of configuration profiles for multiple routers. The web domain also provides a web portal for customized generation of new configuration profiles based on stored profiles. When a new profile is deployed to and instantiated on a router, the router transmits a “heartbeat” to ensure that it can maintain connectivity with the web domain; if not, the router reverts to a previous “failover” configuration profile that ensures connectivity to the web domain. A router also may be equipped with both a wired and a wireless (e.g., a 3G, 4G, or 4G LTE) WAN communication interface. In the event of a wired connectivity issue, the router controls the wireless WAN interface to prioritize traffic for the router heartbeat and data backup/restore operations between a computer network for which the router serves as a gateway and the web domain.

In an example, a network device may receive a L3VPN packet of which an egress label edge router (LER) is the network device, and acquire an adjacency index of an adjacency entry in an adjacency table according to the destination IP address of the inner IP datagram from the L3VPN packet. The network device may acquire a PW extended index of a PW extended entry in a PW extended table and a private network layer-2 header for the inner IP datagram from an adjacency entry having the adjacency index. By using the private network layer-2 header and a public network label, a private network label and a public network layer-2 header in a PW extended entry having the PW extended index, the network device may encapsulate the inner IP datagram into a L2VPN packet and forward the L2VPN packet through a physical egress interface in the PW extended entry.
