Abstract: A hybrid cloud computing system is managed by determining communication affinity between a cluster of virtual machines, where one virtual machine in the cluster executes in a virtualized computing system, and another virtual machine in the cluster executes in a cloud computing environment, and where the virtualized computing system is managed by a tenant that accesses the cloud computing environment. After determining a target location in the hybrid cloud computing system to host the cluster of virtual machines based on the determined communication affinity, at least one of the cluster of virtual machines is migrated to the target location.

Abstract: A centralized namespace controller allocates addresses in a distributed cloud infrastructure on-demand. Upon receiving a request to allocate addresses for a network to be provisioned by a cloud computing system included in the distributed cloud infrastructure, the centralized namespace controller allocates a network address that is unique within the distributed cloud infrastructure. Further, the centralized namespace controller allocates a range of virtual network interface cards (NIC) addresses that are unique within the network. The centralized namespace controller then allocates addresses from the range of virtual NIC addresses on an as-requested basis—when a virtual NIC is being created by the first cloud computing system on the network. Advantageously, by centralizing the allocation of addresses and dedicating independent NIC address ranges to different cloud computing systems, the centralized namespace controller enables stretched L2 networks between cloud computing systems while preventing duplicated addresses on the stretched networks.

Abstract: An example method of optimizing connectivity between data centers in a hybrid cloud system having a first data center managed by a first organization and a second data center managed by a second organization, the first organization being a tenant in the second data center. The method includes probing a wide area network (WAN) with test packets by varying an internet protocol (IP) flow tuple of the test packets across a set of IP flows. The method includes identifying a plurality of paths between a gateway of the first data center and another gateway of the second data center associated with the set of IP flows. The method further includes selecting an IP flow from the set of IP flows for an application executing in the first data center. The method further includes establishing a path-optimized connection between the gateway and the other gateway through the WAN having the selected IP flow for use by the application.

Abstract: Techniques for executing jobs in a hybrid cloud computing system. A job defines multiple states and tasks for transitioning between states. Jobs are passed between systems that execute different tasks via a message bus, so that the different tasks may be executed. A job manager controls execution flow of jobs based on a job descriptor that describes the job.

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.
