Abstract: Techniques for implementing history-based connection-server affinity on a network load balancer are provided. In one set of embodiments, the network load balancer can receive a network packet destined for a service, where the service is associated with a plurality of servers, and where the packet is part of a network connection between a client device and one of the plurality of servers. The network load balancer can further compute, using a portion of the packet, a bucket identifier of a bucket for the network connection, identify a first server in the plurality of servers that is currently mapped to the bucket identifier in a hash table, and send the packet to the first server. If the network load balancer receives the packet back from the first server, the network load balancer can determine, based on local history information, a second server that was previously mapped to the bucket identifier in the hash table and send the packet to that second server.

Abstract: Techniques for implementing resilient hashing with compression are provided. In some embodiments, a network device can maintain a compressed partition and an uncompressed partition for a logical hash table, where the logical hash table comprises a first set of mappings between bucket identifiers and active next-hop destinations, the compressed partition comprises a second set of mappings between compressed indices and the active next-hop destinations, and the uncompressed partition comprises a third set of mappings between uncompressed indices and the active next-hop destinations. The network device can compute a hash value using a portion of a packet. When the hash value is addressed by a compressed index, the packet is sent to a next-hop destination in the compressed partition. When the hash value is addressed by an uncompressed index, the packet is sent to a next-hop destination in the uncompressed partition.

Abstract: Packet forwarding includes creating a first lookup table for mapping packets to nodes based on the number of nodes in a first set of nodes. A received packet is mapped to a mapping value using a predetermined mapping function. The first lookup table is indexed using a first subset of bits comprising the mapping value. A second lookup table is created in response to adding a node to the first set of nodes. A subsequently received packet is mapped to a mapping value using the same predetermined mapping function to index the second lookup table using a second subset of bits comprising the mapping value.
