    Abstract: An apparatus and system are described to provide functions and procedures in a data-centric infrastructure (DCI). The logical architecture includes an infrastructure orchestration function and controller. Interactions between the infrastructure orchestration function and controller include a function request to form or release a logical computing node, or modify the logical computing node through addition or removal of at least one of a function-dedicated computing (FDC) function, a data plane (DP) function, or a function-dedicated network (FDN) function to the logical computing node. The controller configures the FDC/DP/FDN functions and sends a response indicating completion of operations performed by the controller that are related to the function request.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to bootstrapping an encrypted single node VSAN cluster. One method includes receiving a request to create an encrypted VSAN cluster from a single host in a software-defined datacenter, deploying a virtual server on a VSAN datastore of the software-defined datacenter, registering a native key provider (NKP) in the virtual server, creating an empty VSAN cluster encrypted by the NKP, adding the single host to the encrypted empty cluster to create a one-host encrypted cluster, registering a KMIP KMS in the virtual server, switching encryption of the one-host encrypted cluster from the NKP to the KMIP KMS, and adding another host to the one-host encrypted cluster to create the encrypted cluster.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques described herein are directed to managing discoverability of Session Management Functions (SMFs) in mobile networks based on connectivity to peer network functions (NFs). In particular, the systems, devices, and techniques can be implemented in fifth generation (5G) mobile networks to provide capability for an SMF to monitor connectivity with one or more peer network NFs, determine the connectivity with the one or more peer NFs does not satisfy a threshold level of connectivity with the peer NFs, and determine to suspend assignment of new calls and connections to the SMF. The SMF may then transmit a message to a network resource function (NRF) associated with the SMF to modify at least one status of the SMF at the NRF to cause the suspension of the assignment of the new calls and connections to the SMF.

    Abstract: A method and a classification configuration module for managing a classification configuration for traffic, related to a service, in a software defined network are disclosed. The classification configuration module receives the classification configuration from a service related module. The classification configuration includes a first indication indicating a traffic treatment for the traffic, and a second indication identifying the traffic to be treated according to the first indication for traffic treatment. The classification configuration module determines, based on the classification configuration, a set of traffic filters for use by a software defined network controlling module to determine a list of service functions implementing the traffic treatment for the traffic. The classification configuration module transmits information relating to the set of traffic filters to the software defined network controlling module.
