Abstract: Techniques for managing networked node transactions are disclosed. In an embodiment, a fingerprint generator determines multiple classifier digital fingerprints that each comprise a bit sequence associated with a respective result classifier. The fingerprint generator receives transaction event entries that contain message text associated with a transaction between two or more nodes. The fingerprint generator generates a digital fingerprint for each of the transaction event entries. Each of the generated digital fingerprints comprises a bit sequence that is associated with an identity of at least one of the two or more nodes, and generating each of the fingerprints includes, for each bit position in the fingerprint bit sequence, determining whether the message text includes a specified text pattern and setting the bit position value based on the determination of whether the message text includes the specified text pattern.

Abstract: A control-plane component of a virtual network interface (VNI) multiplexing service assigns one or more VNIs as members of a first interface group. A first VNI of the interface group is attached to a first compute instance. Network traffic directed to a particular endpoint address associated with the first interface group is to be distributed among members of the first interface group by client-side components of the service. The control-plane component propagates membership metadata of the first interface group to the client-side components. In response to a detection of an unhealthy state of the first compute instance, the first VNI is attached to a different compute instance by the control-plane component.
