Abstract: Packet loss mitigation may be provided. First, queue control data may be sent to a first container and then a route may be stalled after sending the queue control data. The route may correspond to a data path that leads to the first container. Next, modified queue control data may be received from the first container and the first container may be deleted safely with empty queues, preventing packet loss in response to receiving the modified queue control data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for enabling container networking are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request from a first network container on a source server to establish a data session with a second network container on a destination server; determining a destination switch of the destination server based on the request; identifying a communication tunnel between the source server and the destination server; generating a data stream to be embedded in the pre-established communication tunnel, wherein a communication protocol associated with the request is different from a communication protocol used by the data stream; receiving a data packet to be sent to the destination container; mapping the data packet to the data stream; and sending the data packet to the destination server via the data stream over the communication tunnel.

Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment and may include determining at a parent content node that a plurality of recipient content nodes are to receive a same content; generating, based on a determination that the same content is available at the parent content node, a multi-delivery header comprising a plurality of identifiers, wherein each identifier of the plurality of identifiers indicates each recipient content node that is to receive the same content; appending the multi-delivery header to one or more packets of an Internet Protocol (IP) flow associated with the same content; and transmitting packets for the IP flow to each of the plurality of the recipient content nodes.
