    Abstract: Encapsulated packets may be generated for different packets transmitted between a source instance and destination instance in a computer system. The source instance and destination instance may be implemented by different physical hosts linked by multiple network paths. Congestion of the multiple network paths may be determined and path-balancing polices may be implemented in response to the determined congestion. Each encapsulation packet comprises contents of a corresponding packet, and one or more data values selected in accordance with a path-balancing policy. The data values added to one encapsulation packet may differ from those added to another. Different network paths to the destination may be selected for different encapsulation packets of a given transmission based at least in part on the added data values.

    Abstract: Encapsulated packets including sequencing information may be generated for packets to be transmitted between a source instance and destination instance. The source instance and destination instance may be implemented by different physical hosts linked by multiple network paths. Each encapsulated packet comprises contents of a corresponding packet, and one or more data values selected in accordance with whether sequencing is enable. Sequencing for network transmissions may be selective based at least in part one or more attributes of the source instance or destination instance.
