Abstract:
The disclosed technology provides solutions for performing rapid authentication and authorization for distributed containerized microservices. In some aspects, a process of the technology can include steps for: associating a service type with a set of microservices or service pods, detecting deployment of a first microservice on a first host, and receiving an authentication and authorization state from a first virtual network edge (VNE) of the first host. In some aspects, the process can further include steps for distributing the authentication state to a second VNE on a second host, wherein the authentication state is configured to facilitate authentication of one or more subsequent microservices instantiated on the second host by the second VNE. Systems and machine readable media are also provided.

Abstract:
A virtual networking switch on a host computing device can receive a first data packet of a micro-service data flow from a virtual machine running on the host computing device. The first data packet can include micro-service flow data identifying a first container instance that transmitted the first data packet. The virtual networking switch can provide a subset of the micro-service flow data to a container orchestrator, that utilizes the first subset of the micro-service flow data to assign a label to the first micro-service data flow. The virtual networking switch can pin the first micro-service data flow to a first uplink port of the host computing device based on the label assigned to the first micro-service data flow, causing data packets received from the virtual machine as part of the first micro-service data flow to be forwarded to their intended recipient via the first uplink port.
Abstract:
Embodiments generally provide techniques for mapping service modules on a network device. Embodiments identify a plurality of service modules, each configured to perform a respective service. A first one of the plurality of service modules is mapped to a first one of a plurality of virtual switches on the network device. Service policy information for a plurality of virtual switches is retrieved. The service policy information is indicative of service requirements for each of the plurality of virtual switches. Upon detecting an occurrence of a predefined event, embodiments determine a second one of the plurality of virtual switches to map the first service module to, based on the service policy information. The first service module is then mapped to the second virtual switch.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, computer-readable media and methods for monitoring performance data across microservices. One example method includes establishing a service policy configured on a centralized switch controller, applying the service profile to a virtual interface associated with a microservice, mapping a microservice name for the microservice to an IP address and a port number, tracking a protocol flow for the microservice, wherein the protocol flow is associated with a virtual switch, to yield data, aggregating the data to yield aggregated data and presenting the aggregated data on a user interface.
