Abstract: Methods and systems for managing workloads are disclosed. The workloads may be supported by operation of workload components that are hosted by infrastructure. The hosted locations of the workload components by the infrastructure may impact the performance of the workloads. To manage performance of the workloads, an optimization process may be performed to identify a migration plan for migrating some of the workload components to other infrastructure such as shared edge infrastructure. Migration of the workload components may reduce the computing resource cost for performing various workloads.

Abstract: When a cloud services provider infrastructure (CSPI) receives a request from an administrator to perform an operation on an appliance, a load balancer may select a first server within the CSPI to process the request. If the first server does not have a connection with the appliance, the first server may generate a redirect response that includes server identification information identifying a particular server having a pre-established connection with the appliance. The first server may send the redirect response to the application that the administrator used to send the request. The application may then generate a second request that includes the server identification information, and send the second request to the CSPI. A load balancer in the CSPI may then forward the second request to the particular server, and the particular server may use the pre-established connection to send a request to the appliance requesting performance of the operation.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for configuring logical routers of a logical network. The logical routers are implemented in a Kubernetes cluster as a first set of Pods that each perform logical forwarding operations for the logical routers and a second set of Pods that each perform L7 service operations for a respective logical router. From a Kubernetes control plane component, the method receives a notification that the first set requires scaling to include an additional Pod. The first-set Pods process data messages between the logical network and external networks. Within the network management system, the method defines at least one new interface for processing data messages between the logical network and external networks. The method configures the at least one interface on the additional Pod to communicate with external physical routers to receive traffic from the external networks and send traffic to the external networks.

Abstract: A push gateway brokers messages between backend services and client devices connected to the gateway. The gateway includes a plurality of messaging frontend servers, a messaging database, and a plurality of topic servers. The messaging frontend servers manage the socket connections connecting the client devices to the push gateway. The messaging frontend servers may further monitor the socket connections, collecting analytical data on the client devices and the connections. The messaging database is a key-value database that subscribes messaging frontend servers to topics. The topic servers receive publish requests from the backend servers to identify subscribed messaging frontend servers in the messaging database to push messages out to. The frontend messaging servers subsequently push out the message to the client devices subscribed to the topic.
