Abstract: A virtual machine management service obtains a request to instantiate a virtual machine image (VMI) to implement a virtual network function (VNF). The request specifies a set of processor requirements corresponding to instantiation of the VMI. In response to the request, the service identifies, from a server comprising a set of processor cores, available processor capacity. The service determines, based on the available processor capacity and the set of processor requirements, whether to instantiate the VMI on to a subset of processor cores of the server. Based on this determination, the service instantiates the VMI on to the subset of processor cores to implement the VNF.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for software defined branch single IP orchestration. An example method can include establishing, by a controller, a secure tunnel agent to an orchestrator, generating, by the controller, a single IP address on a virtual router for a virtual branch site, and monitoring, by the controller, reachability of the single IP address on the virtual router.

Abstract: An elastic Internet Protocol (IP) address for hypervisor and virtual router management in a branch environment may be provided. First, an IP address may be assigned to a hypervisor associated with a virtual branch. Next, it may be determined that a virtual machine (VM) has been instantiated at the virtual branch. In response to determining that the VM has been instantiated at the virtual branch, the IP address may then be released. It may next be determined that the VM is in a failed state and then, in response to determining that the VM is in the failed state, the IP address may be reassigned to the hypervisor.
