Mechanisms for migration in a communication network of VNFs to VIMs. A method is performed by a migration controller. The method includes obtaining information of network complexity per VNF, information of VM usage per VNF, and information of processing capacity of compute nodes per VIM. The method further includes determining a mapping between the VNFs and the VIMs. The mapping defines at which of the VIMs each of the VNFs is instantiable. The method further includes ordering the VNFs in a list by matching the information of network complexity per VNF and the information of VM usage per VNF to the information of processing capacity of compute nodes per VIM and taking into account the mapping between the VNFs and the VIMs. The method further includes initiating migration of the VNFs to the VIMs in the order defined by the list.

A method of managing a fill state of a buffer in an external device includes monitoring the latency of a network connection to an external device having a network buffer via a managing device. A state of fill of the network buffer is determined based on at least the monitored latency of the network connection, and the effective network speed is estimated based on the state of fill of the network buffer. One or more network traffic scheduling parameters are adjusted in response to the estimated effective network speed, such as a maximum currently usable network speed that is lower than a maximum possible speed of the network. The maximum currently usable network speed of the network connection is periodically increased if the monitored latency is in a normal state and the maximum currently usable network speed is lower than the maximum possible speed of the network.

In an embodiment, a data processing method comprises detecting an approval of a change to an electronic configuration document that symbolically identifies one or more configurations of users, groups, and/or permissions relating to access to computer program artifacts that are stored in a first repository of a geographically distributed, replicated artifact repository system; the artifact repository system comprising one or more second repositories that are geographically remote with respect to the first repository and which replicate the first repository; in response to the detecting: obtaining the electronic configuration document and deriving, based on the electronic configuration document, a plurality of regional repository settings values for users, groups, and/or permissions relating to access to the computer program artifacts and for the one or more second repositories; transmitting the one or more settings values to the one or more second repositories and causing injection of the one or more settings values into one or more repository configuration settings of the second repositories.
