Abstract: A multi-cloud fabric system includes an open flow switch responsive to a first and subsequent data packets and a services controller including a flow database. Further, the multi-cloud fabric system includes a SDN controller that communicates with the services controller through an open flow switch, wherein upon the receipt of the first data packet, the open flow switch directs the first packet to the services controller. The services controller creates a flow entry and makes authentication decisions based on authentication information. The open flow controller based on authentication policies, determines whether to allow or deny access to a corporate network based on saved authentication policies and if the open flow controller determines to deny access, the first packet being re-directed to an authentication server for access.

Abstract: A multi-cloud fabric system includes a compiler that receives a data model and automatically generate artifacts for use by a plurality of plugins, the artifacts being distinct for each of the plugins, the artifacts used to create an image of a user interface (UI). A UI tier receives the image of the UI to create a user UI. Therefore, user UI is generated automatically and the multi-cloud fabric system is data-driven to support multiple users.

Abstract: A multi-cloud fabric system includes a distributed elastic SLA analyzer and a distributed elastic analytic correlator. The distributed elastic SLA analyzer provides aggregated network state information to the distributed elastic analytic correlator and the distributed elastic analytic correlator, correlates the aggregated network state information from more than one network services for optimization of the multi-cloud fabric system.

Abstract: A multi-cloud fabric includes an application management unit responsive to one or more applications from an application layer. The multi-cloud fabric further includes a controller that is in communication with resources of a cloud. The controller is responsive to the received application and includes a processor operable to analyze the received application relative to the resources to cause delivery of the one or more applications to the resources dynamically and automatically.

Abstract: A method of managing a service level agreement (SLA) of a data center includes receiving information from a plurality of SLA agents, aggregating the received information and automatically scaling-up or scaling-down network service, network application, or network servers of the data center to meet the SLA.

Abstract: A method of cloud migration includes copying, by a cloud migration manager, a meta data and configuration associated with an application of an existing tier, bringing up, by the cloud migration manager, another tier, applying the copied metadata and configuration associated with the application of the existing tier to the another tier so that the another tier resembles the existing tier and re-directing traffic intended for the existing tier to the another tier.

Abstract: A technique to transfer a first telephony session between a first telephony device and a second telephony device from being conducted through a first network interface of the first telephony device to being conducted through a second network interface of the first telephony device includes the following. A second telephony session between the first network interface and the second network interface is initiated, and subsequently a media termination point of the first telephony session is changed from the first network interface to the second network interface. The technique further includes changing a media termination point of the second telephony session from the first network interface to a location associated with the second telephony device.
