    Abstract: Technologies for dynamically selecting resources for virtual switching include a network appliance configured to identify a present demand on processing resources of the network appliance that are configured to process data associated with network packets received by the network appliance. Additionally, the network appliance is configured to determine a present capacity of one or more acceleration resources of the network appliance and determine a virtual switch operation mode based on the present demand and the present capacity of the acceleration resources, wherein the virtual switch operation mode indicates which of the acceleration resources are to be enabled. The network appliance is additionally configured to configure a virtual switch of the network appliance to operate as a function of the determined virtual switch operation mode and assign acceleration resources of the network appliance as a function of the determined virtual switch operation mode. Other embodiments are described herein.
