    Abstract: Local switching may be provided over a flexible cross-connect VLAN-aware based service. First, a failure of a first segment link of a first segment may be detected by a first network device. The first segment may have a first segment identifier and the first segment link may be connected to the first network device. Next, a route withdraw indicating the first segment identifier may be sent by the first network device in response to detecting the failure of the first segment link of the first segment. A second network device may then receive the route withdraw. Then, the second network device may forward, in response to receiving the route withdraw, traffic received from the first network device to a second segment link of the first segment connected to the second network device. The traffic may be received from the first network device over a backup connection over an Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) core.

    Abstract: Techniques for obtaining application network metadata from a service registry so that a network routing policy may be derived for traffic associated with the application are described herein. The techniques may include receiving, at a service registry, network metadata associated with traffic of an application hosted by a scalable application service platform. The techniques may also include obtaining, by a controller of a network and from the service registry, the network metadata associated with the traffic of the application. Based at least in part on the network metadata, the controller may determine a routing policy that is optimized for sending the traffic through the network. Additionally, the controller may send an indication of the routing policy to a node of the network or otherwise provision the network such that the traffic of the application is sent through the network according to the routing policy.

    Abstract: Techniques for dynamic routing based on application load are described herein. The techniques may include receiving load information associated with resources of an application orchestration system that are allocated to host an application, the resources associated with different geographical regions. Based at least in part on the load information, a network controller may determine that first resources of the application orchestration system are less constrained than second resources of the application orchestration system, the first resources associated with a first geographical region and the second resources associated with a second geographical region. Based at least in part on the first resources being less constrained than the second resources, application traffic may be routed through the network to the application hosted by the first resources in the first geographical region.

    Abstract: Presented herein are methodologies for tracking a link state of a physical network connection and selectively reporting the link state to virtual machines that rely on the physical network connection. A method includes receiving an indication, at a hypervisor, which is running on a host computer and which instantiates a virtual switch, that a physical link interconnecting the host computer to a network has failed; determining that the physical link serves the virtual switch; determining whether link state tracking is enabled for the physical link; and when link state tracking is enabled for the physical link, notifying a virtual machine, which is running on the host computer and which is being served by the virtual switch, that a connection between the virtual machine and the network has failed.
