Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing high performant packets processing capabilities in a virtualized cloud environment that enhance the scalability and high availability of the packets processing infrastructure. In certain embodiments disclosed herein, the VNICs functionality performed by network virtualization devices (NVDs) is offloaded from the NVDs to a fleet of computers, referred to as VNIC-as-a-Service System (or VNICaaS system). VNICaaS system is configured to provide Virtual Network Interface Cards (VNICs)-related functionality or service for multiple compute instances belonging to multiple tenants or customers of the CSPI. The VNICaaS system is capable of hosting multiple VNICs to process and transmit traffic in a distributed virtualized cloud networks environment. A single VNIC executed by the VNICaaS system can be used to process packets received from multiple compute instances.

Abstract: Systems and methods for support server high availability with network link bonding for cloud overlay networks are disclosed herein. The method can include selecting a compute instance, identifying a plurality of Network Virtualization Devices (“NVD”) for association with the compute instance, and creating a number of Virtualized Network Interface Cards (“VNIC”), each of which VNICs can reside in one of the plurality of NVDs. The method can include overlaying an IP address of the compute instance to each of the VNICs, such that each of the VNICs share a common IP address, designating a network path formed by one of the VNICs in one of the NVDs as an active network path and another of the network paths as an inactive network path, and activating the inactive network path when the active network path fails.

Abstract: The invention provides a method, system and computer program product for detecting field order of a video sequence. The method includes processing a top and bottom field picture of a first frame and a second frame, in which the first and second frames are consecutive frames of a video sequence. Difference frames are obtained by calculating the difference of the top and bottom field pictures of the first and second frames. Thereafter, field order is detected using the difference frames.
