Abstract: A respective VPN routing table for each of a plurality of VPNs can be stored on a client device. The client device can access a first VPN routing table and, using the first VPN routing table, establish a first VPN tunnel to a first VPN. The first VPN can be a first subnetwork assigned a particular network prefix. While the first VPN tunnel is currently active, the client device can access a second VPN routing table and, using the second VPN routing table, establish a second VPN tunnel to the second VPN. The second VPN can be a second subnetwork assigned the same particular network prefix as the first subnetwork. While the first VPN tunnel and the second VPN tunnel are simultaneously active, the client device can communicate data to remote devices in the first VPN and the second VPN using the particular network prefix for both.

Abstract: A compute server of a distributed cloud computing network receives an indication of a hostname in a Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshake message from a client device. The compute server determines that an on-demand code piece is configured to execute on the compute server responsive to receiving an HTTP request for the hostname. Prior to receiving the request for the hostname, the compute server preloads the on-demand code piece for execution. The compute server receives an HTTP request from the client device that triggers execution of the preloaded on-demand code piece. The compute server executed the preloaded on-demand code piece and generates a response to the HTTP request based in part on the executed code piece. The compute server transmits the response to the client device.

Abstract: A command and response messaging mechanism for use between nodes of a homogeneous data grid can allow a configuration state to be quickly provisioned to the nodes of a cluster at run time for an application running on the data grid. For example, a processing device of a node can receive a global configuration state from a peer node in the grid network. The processing device can apply common values for symmetrical attributes from the global configuration state to a local configuration. The processing device can also apply individual node values for asymmetrical attributes from the global configuration state to the local configuration. The processing device can then run the application on the local node using the local configuration.
