Abstract: A method of migrating a virtual machine (VM) having a virtual disk from a source data center to a destination data center includes generating a snapshot of the VM to create a base disk and a delta disk in which writes to the virtual disk subsequent to the snapshot are recorded, and copying the base disk to a destination data store. The method further includes, in response to a request to migrate the VM, preparing a migration specification at the source and transmitting the migration specification to the destination, the migration specification including a VM identifier and a current content ID of the base disk, and determining that a content ID of the copied base disk matches the current content ID of the base disk included in the migration specification and updating the migration specification to indicate that the base disk does not need to be migrated.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method of sending data in a network that includes multiple worker nodes, each worker node executing at least one set of containers, a gateway interface, and a virtual local area network (VLAN) tunnel interface. The method configures the gateway interface of each worker node to associate the gateway interface with multiple subnets. Each subnet is associated with a namespace, a first worker node executes a first set of containers of a first namespace, and a second worker node executes a second set of containers of the first namespace and a third set of containers of a second namespace. The method sends data between the first set of containers and the second set of containers through a VLAN tunnel between the first and second worker nodes. The method sends data between the first set of containers and the third set of containers through the gateway interface.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method of preventing network spread of malware files. At a host computer executing in a datacenter, the method receives a request from a particular compute machine executing on the host computer to open a file that was downloaded to the host computer for the particular machine. The method determines whether the file is a known file that has been previously assessed to contain malware. Based on a determination that the file is unknown, the method allows the particular compute machine to open the file while also (i) creating a record to identify the file as a file that is currently being analyzed to assess whether the file contains malware, and (ii) distributing the record to other host computers in the datacenter to ensure that the file cannot be opened on the other host computers until it has been analyzed to confirm that the file does not contain malware.

Abstract: An example method of managing an automation pipeline in a computing system includes: receiving, at a pipeline manager, a definition of the pipeline having a plurality of stages, each of the plurality of stages having at least one task; receiving, at the pipeline manager, an indication that the pipeline is global across a plurality of projects; receiving, at an execution orchestrator, a request from a user to execute the pipeline; requesting, by the execution orchestrator from the user, a target project of the plurality of projects in which to execute the pipeline in response to the pipeline being global; and executing, by the execution orchestrator, the pipeline in the target project to deploy an application executing on virtualized infrastructure of the computing system.

Abstract: An example method of deploying a logical network platform in a virtualized computing system, the virtualized computing system including a host cluster and a virtualization management server connected to a physical network, the host cluster having hosts and a virtualization layer executing on hardware platforms of the hosts is described. The method includes receiving, at the virtualization management server, a declarative specification describing a proposed state of the logical network platform; deploying, by the virtualization management server, a network manager of the logical network platform in response to the proposed state in the declarative specification; and deploying, by the virtualization management server in cooperation with the network manager, binaries to the hosts in the host cluster.

Abstract: System and method for provide a computing infrastructure as a service creates a flexible cloud namespace in a software-defined data center (SDDC) in response to a first instruction from a user and deploys virtual computing instances in the flexible cloud namespace in response to a second instruction from the user. The flexible cloud namespace comprises a logical construct with resources in the SDDC that are supported by underlying SDDC management entities, where the virtual computing instances execute in the flexible cloud namespace of the SDDC using the resources.

Abstract: An example method may include receiving a request to create a temporary break glass account from a user associated with a user account. The request may include a time period for accessing a data center resource. In response to receiving the request, the temporary break glass account may be created. Further, credentials associated with the temporary break glass account may be notified to the user. Furthermore, an operation may be enabled on the data center resource via the temporary break glass account using the credentials. Further, the temporary break glass account may be deleted in response to an expiration of a timer. The timer may be configured based on the time period.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for network status visualization are described. In one example, a first computer system may generate and send a first query identifying a first-level object. Based on a first response, the first computer system may generate and display a first UI view that includes (a) a first user interface (UI) element and multiple second UI elements, (b) a first-level status indicator to indicate that the first-level object is associated with a performance issue, and (c) a second-level status indicator to indicate that the performance issue is associated with a particular second-level object. In response to detecting a user's interaction, the first computer system may generate and send a second query identifying the particular second-level object. Based on a second response, the first computer system may generate and display a second UI view to facilitate troubleshooting of the performance issue.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for blockchain-based licensing as a service are described. In one example, a computer system may receive a first request to obtain a first license associated with a first product from a first client system. In response, the computer system may (a) select a first blockchain from multiple blockchains, and (b) generate and store a first non-fungible token (NFT) on the first blockchain to issue the first license. Further, the computer system may receive a second request to obtain a second license associated with the first product or a second product from a second client system. In response, the computer system may (a) select a second blockchain from multiple blockchains, and (b) generate and store a second NFT on the second blockchain to issue the second license.

Abstract: Techniques associated with adaptive infrastructure security are disclosed. Information regarding a plurality of threat events from one or more source systems is received. For each of the plurality of threat events, a probability of a target system being exploited can be computed. A threat event can be selected at a first time from the plurality of threat events associated with a first probability that meets a threshold. Remedial actions performed to address the threat event at a respective source system can be received, and a guardrail to apply to the target system can be determined based on the remedial actions. The guardrail can then be applied to the target system.
