Abstract: Example implementations relate to a plugin framework that facilitates management of heterogenous infrastructure resources residing in distributed data centers by multiple resource aggregators (RAs). According to an example, the plugin framework is logically interposed between the RAs and the heterogeneous infrastructure resources. The plugin framework includes multiple plugins each of which exposes a public API through which the RAs interact with the heterogeneous infrastructure resources. Each of the plugins corresponds to a particular type of resource of the heterogeneous infrastructure resources. Responsive to a first request issued to an RA by a north-bound client to a collection of the heterogeneous infrastructure resources, a plugin receives via its public API a second request including an RA-native message directed to a resource of the collection. The plugin directs the resource to take an action specified by the second request by translating the RA-native message to an infrastructure-native message understood by the resource.

Abstract: In some examples, as part of implementing a service on a communication infrastructure that includes multiple different types of network domains, a system creates a distributed cloud of network functions, where the network functions are executable in virtualized environments on the physical resources to perform respective tasks. The system establishes a connection between the network functions to provide the service as part of service orchestration in the communication infrastructure, the service including the respective tasks of the network functions. Communication of data between the network functions includes translating, at an edge of the distributed cloud, domain-specific data packets according to protocols used in the multiple different types of network domains to domain-agnostic data packets comprising labels to support label-based forwarding of data packets between the network functions in the virtualized environments.

Abstract: Examples relate to a system comprising a cluster of worker nodes communicatively connected to a control plane. The control plane includes a first control switch and a second control switch. The control switches are configured with a virtual IP address. The IP address is associated with a control switch operating in an active mode. The control switches communicate with a cluster of worker nodes via the virtual IP address. A single instance of a key-value database is deployed on one of the first control switch and the second control switch that is operating in active mode, and the first control switch and the second control switch are functionally coupled by a distributed block system for data synchronization.
