    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for improving the efficiency of exchanging packets between pairs of VMs within a communications server. An apparatus may include a processor component; a network interface to couple the processor component to a network; a virtual switch to analyze contents of at least one packet of a set of packets to be exchanged between endpoint devices through the network and the communications server, and to route the set of packets through one or more virtual servers of multiple virtual servers based on the contents; and a transfer component of a first virtual server of the multiple virtual servers to determine whether to route the set of packets to the virtual switch or to transfer the set of packets to a second virtual server of the multiple virtual servers in a manner that bypasses the virtual switch based on a routing rule.

    Abstract: Technologies for dynamically managing a batch size of packets include a network device. The network device is to receive, into a queue, packets from a remote node to be processed by the network device, determine a throughput provided by the network device while the packets are processed, determine whether the determined throughput satisfies a predefined condition, and adjust a batch size of packets in response to a determination that the determined throughput satisfies a predefined condition. The batch size is indicative of a threshold number of queued packets required to be present in the queue before the queued packets in the queue can be processed by the network device.

    Abstract: Technologies for efficient network flow classification include a computing device that receives a network packet that includes a header. The computing device generates a vector Bloom filter (VBF) key as a function of the header and searches multiple VBFs for a VBF that matches the VBF key. Each VBF is associated with a flow sub-table that includes one or more flow rules. Each flow sub-table is associated with a mask length. If a matching VBF is found, the computing device searches the corresponding flow sub-table for a flow rule that matches a masked header of the network packet. If no matching VBF is found or if no matching flow rule is found, the computing device searches all of the flow sub-tables for a flow rule that matches the header. The computing device applies a flow action of a matching flow rule. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
