    Abstract: Techniques for networking in provider network substrate extensions are described. A compute instance of an isolated virtual network is hosted by an extension of a provider network that is in communication with the provider network via a secure tunnel through a customer network. A request to establish communications between the isolated virtual network and the customer network is received at an interface to the provider network. A message to cause a gateway of the extension to route traffic between the isolated virtual network and the customer network is sent via the secure tunnel.

    Abstract: Features are disclosed for enriching a packet of network traffic between a first computing environment and a second computing environment with telemetry information. Each computing environment can include a network device for enriching packets with telemetry information and parsing enriched packets. A source network device can select a packet of the network traffic for enrichment based on enrichment parameters and generate an enriched packet including payload information and telemetry information. A destination network device can receive the enriched packet and parse the enriched packet to separate the payload information and telemetry information. The destination network device can transmit transmission information to the source network device based on the enriched packet.

    Abstract: Various embodiments of apparatuses and methods for trusted and/or attested packet timestamping are described. In some embodiments, the disclosed system and methods include a reference timekeeper providing a reference clock to host computing devices. The host computing devices host compute instances using a first set of computing resources, and also contain isolated timing hardware utilizing a different set of computing resources. The isolated timing hardware sets a hardware clock based on a signal corresponding to the reference clock from the reference timekeeper. The isolated timing hardware then receives a packet from a particular compute instance, creates a timestamp for the packet based at least in part on the hardware clock, where the timestamp is outside the control of the compute instances, and sends the packet and the timestamp through a data network to transmit to a packet destination.
