    摘要: Lifecycle management is implemented in a data processing system. A first workload is provided in a first workload environment. The first workload is used to align one or more first lifecycle management states of the first workload in the first workload environment and one or more second lifecycle management states of a second workload. The second workload is in a second, different workload environment.

    摘要: In a telecommunications network, a network node processes messages according to different sets of user-programmable message processing rules. The network node includes an input for receiving a series of input messages which are processed in a message manipulation function. Processed messages are also output from the network node according different communication protocols.

    摘要: A virtualized computing environment of a telecommunications network comprises a cluster of virtual machines with a one-to-one ratio of active and backup virtual machines. One or more additional clusters of virtual machines have a N-to-K ratio of active and backup virtual machines where N>K. The backup virtual machines are configured to provide failover capacity for processing communications sessions in an event of a failure of one of the active virtual machines. A cluster redundancy capability indicates the ratio of the active and backup virtual machines for that cluster. A predetermined type associated with a requested communication session is determined. A cluster having a cluster redundancy capability corresponding to the predetermined type is selected. Data for the requested communication session is sent to an active virtual machine in the selected cluster.

    摘要: Certain aspects provide a method of commissioning a virtualized network function (VNF), including: at a commissioning virtual machine instantiated in a virtualized environment of a customer network, configuring a remote access connection facility for accessing the commissioning virtual machine remotely from outside of the customer network, wherein the commissioning virtual machine has access to a virtual infrastructure manager (VIM) component of the virtualized environment; causing, via the remote access connection facility, configuration of a VNF manager component within the commissioning virtual machine; and causing, via the remote access connection facility, the configured VNF manager component to instruct the VIM component to instantiate one or more virtual machines in the virtualized environment, the one or more virtual machines being operable to perform at least a part of the VNF.

    摘要: A packet processing system comprises a packet processing graph comprising classifier nodes including a root classifier node and leaf classifier nodes. The root classifier node is connected to each of the classifier nodes through a respective packet processing path in the graph. Each classifier node stores node match data indicative of at least one match to be applied by the respective classifier node. The classifier nodes comprise first and second classifier nodes arranged in a first packet processing path of said plurality of packet processing paths. The first classifier node stores node match data indicative of a match corresponding to content from a plurality of packet header field types, including first and second, different packet header field types. The second classifier node stores node match data indicative of a match corresponding to content from at least one packet header field type, including the first packet header field type.

    摘要: A machine-implemented method for controlling transfer of at least one data item from a data cache component, in communication with storage using at least one relatively higher-latency path and at least one relatively lower-latency path, comprises: receiving metadata defining at least a first characteristic of data selected for inspection; responsive to the metadata, seeking a match between said at least first characteristic and a second characteristic of at least one of a plurality of data items in the data cache component; selecting said at least one of the plurality of data items where the at least one of the plurality of data items has the second characteristic matching the first characteristic; and passing the selected one of the plurality of data items from the data cache component using the relatively lower-latency path.

    摘要: A network node comprises a core processing part to perform a core processing function, an ingress processing part to receive incoming signaling messages, an egress processing part to output signaling messages for transmission from the network node, and a message manipulation function to manipulate signaling messages. In a first configuration, the message manipulation function is comprised in the ingress processing part, and in a second configuration the message manipulation function is comprised in the egress processing part. In the first configuration, an egress characteristic is determined, indicative of how an outgoing signaling message is to be outputted, and an incoming signaling message is manipulated based on the egress characteristic. In the second configuration, an ingress characteristic is determined, indicative of how an incoming signaling message has been received, and an outgoing signaling message is manipulated based on the ingress characteristic.
