Abstract: System and method for provide a computing infrastructure as a service creates a flexible cloud namespace in a software-defined data center (SDDC) in response to a first instruction from a user and deploys virtual computing instances in the flexible cloud namespace in response to a second instruction from the user. The flexible cloud namespace comprises a logical construct with resources in the SDDC that are supported by underlying SDDC management entities, where the virtual computing instances execute in the flexible cloud namespace of the SDDC using the resources.

Abstract: An example method may include receiving a request to create a temporary break glass account from a user associated with a user account. The request may include a time period for accessing a data center resource. In response to receiving the request, the temporary break glass account may be created. Further, credentials associated with the temporary break glass account may be notified to the user. Furthermore, an operation may be enabled on the data center resource via the temporary break glass account using the credentials. Further, the temporary break glass account may be deleted in response to an expiration of a timer. The timer may be configured based on the time period.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for network status visualization are described. In one example, a first computer system may generate and send a first query identifying a first-level object. Based on a first response, the first computer system may generate and display a first UI view that includes (a) a first user interface (UI) element and multiple second UI elements, (b) a first-level status indicator to indicate that the first-level object is associated with a performance issue, and (c) a second-level status indicator to indicate that the performance issue is associated with a particular second-level object. In response to detecting a user's interaction, the first computer system may generate and send a second query identifying the particular second-level object. Based on a second response, the first computer system may generate and display a second UI view to facilitate troubleshooting of the performance issue.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for blockchain-based licensing as a service are described. In one example, a computer system may receive a first request to obtain a first license associated with a first product from a first client system. In response, the computer system may (a) select a first blockchain from multiple blockchains, and (b) generate and store a first non-fungible token (NFT) on the first blockchain to issue the first license. Further, the computer system may receive a second request to obtain a second license associated with the first product or a second product from a second client system. In response, the computer system may (a) select a second blockchain from multiple blockchains, and (b) generate and store a second NFT on the second blockchain to issue the second license.

Abstract: Techniques associated with adaptive infrastructure security are disclosed. Information regarding a plurality of threat events from one or more source systems is received. For each of the plurality of threat events, a probability of a target system being exploited can be computed. A threat event can be selected at a first time from the plurality of threat events associated with a first probability that meets a threshold. Remedial actions performed to address the threat event at a respective source system can be received, and a guardrail to apply to the target system can be determined based on the remedial actions. The guardrail can then be applied to the target system.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for dynamically processing data message flows using different non-uniform memory access (NUMA) nodes of a processing system. Each NUMA node includes a memory and processors that can access data other memories of other NUMA nodes. A load balancing application associated with a first NUMA node receives flows destined for an endpoint application. The flows are assigned to the first NUMA node to be forwarded to the endpoint application. The load balancing application monitors a central processing (CPU) usage of the first NUMA node to determine whether the CPU usage of the first NUMA node exceeds a particular threshold. When the CPU usage of the first NUMA node exceeds the particular threshold, the load balancing application reassigns at least a subset of the flows to the second NUMA node for processing.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for processing data message flows using several non-uniform memory access (NUMA) nodes of a processing system. Each NUMA node includes a local memory and a set of processors that can access data from local memories of other NUMA nodes. A load balancing application associated with a first NUMA node receives a data message flow destined for an endpoint application. The load balancing application determines whether the first NUMA node should perform a middlebox service operation on the data message flow that is destined to the endpoint application. Based on a determination that the first NUMA node should not process the data message flow, the load balancing application directs the data message flow to a second NUMA node for performing the middlebox service operation.

Abstract: System and computer-implemented method enables a hardware watchdog timer in a data processing unit (DPU) and detects that a host server that is connected to the DPU is unresponsive when the hardware watchdog timer expires without receiving a timer reset request from a host watchdog service timer thread running in the host server.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for replacing hard-coded certificate pinning with blockchain based certificate pinning. A signing device can obtain a public key from an endpoint device, produce a signature for the public key, and store the public key on a distributed data store, such as a blockchain. A client device can obtain and validate the public keys from the distributed data store and use the public keys to establish a secure connection between the client device and the endpoint device.
