    Abstract: This disclosure describes methods and systems to externally manage network-to-network interconnect configuration data in conjunction with a centralized database subsystem. An example of the methods includes receiving and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, data indicative of user intent to interconnect at least a first network and a second network. The example method further includes, based at least in part on the data indicative of user intent, determining and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, a network intent that corresponds to the user intent. The example method further includes providing data indicative of the network intent from the centralized database subsystem to a first data plane adaptor, associated with the first network, and a second data plane adaptor, associated with the second network.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, an offload platform is an compute platform, adjunct to a router or other packet switching device, that performs packet processing operations including determining an egress forwarding value corresponding to the next-hop node of the packet switching device to which to send an offload-platform processed packet. The offload platform downloads forwarding information from the router, and augments it, such as, but not limited to, representing interfaces of the router as identifiable virtual interface(s) on the offload platform, and including each of one or more next-hop nodes of the router represented as an identifiable virtual adjacency and identifiable tunnel (e.g., identified by the egress forwarding value). In one embodiment, the egress forwarding value is an Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) label or Segment Routing Identifier. The router identifies packets of certain packet flows to send to the adjunct offload platform, rather than processing per its routing information base.

    Abstract: Resource provider specifications, characterizing computing resources of computing resource providers, are received. The reachability of each IP address included in the received specification is determined. An agent is deployed that is operable to determine the value of each of a set of metrics in the environment of the host at which the agent is deployed. The agent determines the value of each metric of the set of metrics in the environment of the relevant host, and communicates the determined values to one or more computing devices that validate whether the resources characterized by the communicated values are sufficient to provide the performance characterized by the received specification and that each ISP router complies with a predetermined policy. For each computing resource provider validated and determined to comprise an ISP router compliant with policy, the specified computing resources are added to a pool of resources for cloud computing.

    Abstract: An enclave manager of a network enclave obtains a request to retrieve configuration information and state information corresponding to compute devices and network devices comprising a network enclave. The request specifies a set of parameters of the configuration information and the state information usable to generate a response to the request. The enclave manager evaluates the compute devices, the network devices, and network connections among these devices within the network enclave to obtain the configuration information and the state information. Based on the configuration information and the state information, the enclave manager determines whether the network enclave is trustworthy. Based on the parameters of the request, the enclave manager generates a response indicating a summary that is used to identify the trustworthiness of the network enclave.

    Abstract: Disclosed are concepts for provided for managing application traffic. A method includes receiving a request to access a service from an application, confirming an entity of a user of the application and, based on the confirmation, generating, via an authentication service, a routing policy for data flows between the application and the service. The routing policy defines a mandated path between the application and the service. The method also can include storing proof-of-transit data in the traffic flow for tracking an actual path from the application to the service and determining whether the data path complies with the mandated path defined in the policy. When the determination indicates that the actual path followed the mandated path defined in the routing policy, the method includes granting access to the user for the service. When the actual path differs from the mandated path, the method includes denying access to the user.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a network quality assessment service that monitors a network obtains multimodal data indicative of a plurality of measurements from the network and subjective perceptions of the network by users of the network. The network quality assessment service uses the obtained multimodal data as input to one or more neural network-based models. The network quality assessment service maps, using a conceptual space, outputs of the one or more neural network-based models to symbols. The network quality assessment service applies a symbolic reasoning engine to the symbols, to generate a conclusion regarding the monitored network. The network quality assessment service provides an indication of the conclusion to a user interface.
