Patent number: 11729044Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a management system that determines which services to redeploy on one or more platforms. A platform can receive a configuration to perform during a failure of connectivity with a management system. The platform can monitor activity of one or more services. The platform can, based on failure of connectivity with the management system and recovery of connectivity with the management system, provide the monitored activity of one or more services to the management system to influence services re-deployed by the management system. In some examples, based on failure to re-establish a connection with the management system within an amount of time, the platform can connect with the management system using a secondary management interface.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Maryam Tahhan, Shobhi Jain, John J.

Patent number: 11038819Abstract: Technologies for distributing network packet workload are disclosed. A compute device may receive a network packet and determine network packet extrinsic entropy information that is based on information that is not part of the contents of the network packet, such as an arrival time of the network packet. The compute device may use the extrinsic entropy information to assign the network packet to one of several packet processing queues. Since the assignment of network packets to the packet processing queues depend at least in part on extrinsic entropy information, similar or even identical packets will not necessarily be assigned to the same packet processing queue.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2017Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Ronen Chayat, Andrey Chilikin, Chris Macnamara, Maryam Tahhan, Giovanni Cabiddu

Patent number: 10860714Abstract: Technologies for cache side channel attack detection and mitigation include an analytics server and one or more monitored computing devices. The analytics server polls each computing device for analytics counter data. The computing device generates the analytics counter data using a resource manager of a processor of the computing device. The analytics counter data may include last-level cache data or memory bandwidth data. The analytics server identifies suspicious core activity based on the analytics counter data and, if identified, deploys a detection process to the computing device. The computing device executes the detection process to identify suspicious application activity. If identified, the computing device may perform one or more corrective actions. Corrective actions include limiting resource usage by a suspicious process using the resource manager of the processor. The resource manager may limit cache occupancy or memory bandwidth used by the suspicious process.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2018Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: John J.

Publication number: 20190045000Abstract: Technologies for load-aware traffic steering include a compute device that includes a multi-homed network interface controller (NIC) with a plurality of NICs. The compute device determines a target virtual network function (VNF) of a plurality of VNFs to perform a processing operation on a network packet. The compute device further identifies a first steering point of a first NIC to steer the received network packet to virtual machines (VMs) associated with the target VNF and retrieves a resource utilization metric that corresponds to a usage level of a component of the compute device used by the VMs to process the network packet. Additionally, the compute device determines whether the resource utilization metric indicates a potential overload condition and provides a steering instruction to a second steering point of a second NIC that is usable to redirect the network traffic to the other VMs via the identified second steering point.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2018Publication date: February 7, 2019Inventors: Chetan Hiremath, Timothy Verrall, Andrey Chilikin, Thomas Long, Maryam Tahhan, Eoin Walsh, Andrew Duignan, Rory Browne
