Abstract: An example method of application monitoring in a virtualized computing system including a host cluster of having a virtualization layer directly executing on hardware platforms of hosts, the virtualization layer supporting execution of virtual machines (VMs) and integrated with an orchestration control plane includes: receiving, at a pod VM controller, a health monitoring specification, the pod VM controller executing in the virtualization layer external to the VMs; providing, from the pod VM controller to a pod VM agent executing in a pod VM of the VMs, the health monitoring specification, the pod VM including a container engine supporting execution of containers therein; executing, in the pod VM by the pod VM agent, at least one probe of an application executing in one or more of the containers; and returning, from the pod VM agent to the pod VM controller, application health status obtained from the at least one probe.

Abstract: An example method of packet processing in a host cluster of a virtualized computing system includes: receiving traffic at packet processing software of a hypervisor executing on a host of the host cluster; processing the traffic using a network service of the packet processing software in the hypervisor; redirecting the traffic to a service virtual machine (VM) in the host cluster through a virtual network interface card (vNIC) of the service VM; sending metadata from the network service of the packet processing software to the service VM; processing the traffic and the metadata through at least one network service executing in the service VM; returning the traffic from the service VM to the packet processing software of the hypervisor; and forwarding, by the packet processing software, the traffic to a destination.
