Abstract

See full text

A virtual networking switch on a host computing device can receive a first data packet of a micro-service data flow from a virtual machine running on the host computing device. The first data packet can include micro-service flow data identifying a first container instance that transmitted the first data packet. The virtual networking switch can provide a subset of the micro-service flow data to a container orchestrator, that utilizes the first subset of the micro-service flow data to assign a label to the first micro-service data flow. The virtual networking switch can pin the first micro-service data flow to a first uplink port of the host computing device based on the label assigned to the first micro-service data flow, causing data packets received from the virtual machine as part of the first micro-service data flow to be forwarded to their intended recipient via the first uplink port.
