Abstract: Examples include systems and methods for providing automatic techniques for provisioning a computing device with an operating system and network processing functions. Some examples include automatically initiating a network handling module for configuring or programming a network interface card in a computing device to enable a network processing function while rebooting the computing device post operating system installation.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a plurality of examples for deploying an application workload consisting of micro-service instances. The examples include federating a cluster from a plurality of computing nodes, defining a network overlay policy based on an application policy associated with the application workload, configuring one or more virtual networks in accordance with defined network overlay policy, each virtual network from one or more virtual networks connects one or more computing nodes from the two or more computing nodes of the cluster for providing layer 2 adjacency, and deploying the plurality of micro-service instances on the two or more computing nodes in accordance with the network overlay policy, for executing the application workload.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a plurality of examples for federating a cluster from a plurality of interconnected computing nodes. The examples disclose receiving network information and enclosure information associated with the plurality of the computing nodes, identifying a plurality of fault domains based on network information and the enclosure information, each fault domain includes one or more computing nodes impacted by at least one of a corresponding network fault event and a corresponding enclosure fault event, and selecting a first computing node and a second computing node for federating the cluster, the first computing node is from a first fault domain and the second computing node is from a second fault domain.

Abstract: A method for processing a data packet in a network server system comprising at least one central processor unit (CPU) having a plurality of cores; and a network interface for forming a connection to a network between the network and a designated CPU core, such that for all data packets received from the network an interrupt is created in the designated CPU core for received data packet processing. Each data packet received from the network is associated with an application connection established in a CPU core selected based on processor load and an interrupt thread is created on the CPU core associated with the application connection for processing the data packet. Each data packet being sent to the network is associated with an application connected established either in the CPU core in which the application is executing or an alternative CPU core selected based on processor load.
