Abstract: A method for stateless distribution of bidirectional flows with network address translation (NAT) comprises: determining an original source port for a first packet of a front-end received from a client device, wherein the original source port is associated with a processing core; selecting a new source port for a back-end flow, wherein the new source port is selected such that the back-end flow is returned to the processing core of the front-end flow; replacing the original source port with the new source port; and transmitting the incoming flow to a destination server.

Abstract: A system for computing an optimal deployment of at least one web application in a multi-datacenter system comprising a collector for collecting performance measurements with regard to a web application executed in the multi-datacenter system and grouping the performance measurements according to locations of a plurality of clients accessing the web application; a data repository for maintaining at least a performance table including at least the performance measurements grouped according to the plurality of client locations and a service level agreement (SLA) guaranteed to clients in the plurality of client locations; and an analyzer for processing at least information stored in the performance table for generating a recommendation on an optimal deployment of the web application in at least one combination of datacenters in the multi-datacenter system by computing an expected SLA that can be guaranteed to the clients in each combination of datacenters.

Abstract: A method, host machine, and a virtual network for distributing application delivery controller services in a virtual network are presented. The method includes activating a first application delivery controller (ADC) agent on at least a first host machine of a plurality of host machines included in the virtual network, wherein the first host machine is configured to host at least one client; intercepting, by the first ADC agent, a request from the at least one client, wherein the request is for a service provided by one server of a plurality of servers hosted by the plurality of host machines; selecting, by the first ADC agent, a server of the plurality of servers to serve the request; forwarding, by the first ADC agent, the intercepted request to the selected server; and relaying a response to the intercepted request received from the selected server to the at least one client.
