    Abstract: A method of migrating a virtualized computing instance between source and destination virtualized computing systems includes executing a first migration workflow in the source virtualized computing system between a source host computer and a first mobility agent simulating a destination host, executing a second migration workflow in the destination virtualized computing system between a second mobility agent simulating a source host and a destination host computer, sending, as part of the first migration workflow, a configuration of the migrated virtualized computing instance to the destination virtualized computing system, translating, as part of the second migration workflow, infrastructure-dependent information in the configuration of the migrated virtualized computing instance, and transferring, during execution of the first and second migration workflows, migration data including the virtualized computing instance between the source host and the destination host over a network.

    Abstract: A cloud computing system retrieves routing entries associated with a particular tenant of the cloud computing system and are a subset of a routing table of the entire cloud computing system. The routing entries are loaded into a networking switch, which is configured to route network packets using the loaded subset of routing entries, using a general-purpose processor rather than a costly dedicated ASIC.

    Abstract: A hybrid cloud computing system having a private data center and a public cloud computing system is discussed. The private data center is managed by a first organization. The public cloud computing system is managed by a second organization, and the first organization is a tenant in the public cloud computing system. The hybrid cloud computing system is configured to generate a mapping that contextualizes virtual objects migrated between the private data center and the public cloud computing system based on the objects' location. Such a mapping is maintained to expose the true hybridity of the hybrid cloud rather than present two distinct views of a private data center (or private cloud) and a public cloud.

    Abstract: An example provides a method of creating an instance of a virtual machine in a cloud computing system that includes: accepting a network connection at a server resource in the cloud computing system from a first client resource in a first virtualized computing system to transfer a first virtual machine; receiving first signatures for guest files of the first virtual machine from the first client resource; checking the first signatures against a content library in the cloud computing system to identify first duplicate files of the guest files that match first base files stored in the content library, and to identify first unique files of the guest files; instructing the first client resource such that a response to the instructing will send the first unique files to the exclusion of the first duplicate files; and generating an instance of the first virtual machine in the cloud computing system having the first base files and the first unique files.

    Abstract: A method of deploying a network service across multiple data centers, each having a cloud management server running a cloud computing management software to provision virtual infrastructure resources thereof for a first tenant among a plurality of tenants, includes maintaining for each data center static inventory data that indicate virtual infrastructure resources that are available thereat to the first tenant, identifying, in response to a network service request for the first tenant, a virtual network function associated with the network service, generating commands to deploy the virtual network function based on a descriptor of the virtual network function, selecting one of the data centers in which the virtual network function is to be deployed based on the descriptor of the virtual network function and the static inventory data of each data center, and issuing the commands to the selected data center to deploy the virtual network function.

    Abstract: A method of deploying a virtual network function of a network service in a data center having a cloud management server running a cloud computing management software to provision virtual infrastructure resources of the data center to at least one tenant, includes generating at least first and second API calls to the cloud computing management software in response to external commands received at the data center to deploy a virtual network function, and executing at least the first and second API calls by the cloud computing management software to deploy the virtual network function. The cloud computing management software creates at least one virtual machine by executing the first API call and at least one virtual disk by executing the second API call.

    Abstract: A method of deploying a network service (NS) across multiple data centers includes identifying virtual network functions (VNFs) associated with the NS in response to a request for or relating to the NS, generating commands to deploy VNFs based on VNF descriptors, and issuing the commands to the data centers to deploy VNFs. The data centers each have a cloud management server in which cloud computing management software is run to provision virtual infrastructure resources thereof for a plurality of tenants. The cloud computing management software of a first data center is different from the cloud computing management software of a second data center, and the commands issued to the first and second data centers are each a generic command that is not in a command format of the cloud computing management software of either the first data center or the second data center.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for cross-cloud hybrid services upgradability. In one embodiment, a virtual network operations center (NOC) with a centralized view of distributed, cross-cloud hybridity manager installations is responsible for continuously gathering information on the environments of on-premise and cloud computing systems, analyzing the gathered information to identify upgrades to hybridity manager instances that are compatible with dependent components and paired hybridity manager(s), and publishing notifications of compatible upgrades to the hybridity manager instances based on the analysis. The publishing of upgrade notifications by the virtual NOC is a server-initiated upgrade that is coordinated across hybrid cloud computing system sites, in contrast to traditional isolated client-initiated upgrades. In addition, the virtual NOC may revoke previous notifications if the associated upgrade versions are no longer compatible with the dependent components and/or the paired hybridity managers.
