20160105321 | CROSS-CLOUD POLICY MANAGEMENT FOR HYBRID CLOUD DEPLOYMENTS - A method is provide for managing a migration of a virtual machine from a private data center managed by a first organization to a public cloud computing system by a second organization and where the first organization is a tenant. The configurations of physical infrastructure of the private data center that underlies the virtual machine are determined, along with a corresponding match preference indicating a level of criticality for some corresponding configuration at the public cloud system. The configurations and match preferences generated as part of a migration package. The public cloud computing system instantiates a corresponding VM based on the determined configurations and corresponding match preferences. | 04-14-2016 |
20160105392 | CENTRAL NAMESPACE CONTROLLER FOR MULTI-TENANT CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS - 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. | 04-14-2016 |
20160105393 | CROSS-CLOUD NAMESPACE MANAGEMENT FOR MULTI-TENANT ENVIRONMENTS - Conditional address translation is performed in a multi-tenant cloud infrastructure to effectively support tenant-assigned addresses. For each tenant, the multi-tenant cloud infrastructure deploys both a private network used to communicate between the tenant and the cloud and a tenant-facing gateway to manage the private network. The multi-tenant cloud infrastructure also includes an externally-facing gateway used to communicate between the multi-tenant cloud and a public network. The tenant-facing gateways are configured to bypass address translation—providing consistent addressing across each private network irrespective of the physical location of resources linked by the private network. By contrast, the public-facing gateway is configured to translate source addresses in outgoing packets to addresses that are unique within the public network. Advantageously, discriminately mapping addresses enables multiple tenants to interact in a uniform fashion with both on-premises resources and cloud-hosted resources without incurring undesirable address collisions between tenants. | 04-14-2016 |

20150281274 | AUTO DETECTING LEGITIMATE IP ADDRESSES USING SPOOFGUARD AGENTS - A method of blocking spoofed packets. The method receives an address allocation message from an address provisioning server that provisions addresses for virtual machines. The address allocation message includes a source address. The method stores the source address of the address allocation message. The method forwards the address allocation message to a virtual machine. The method receives, from the virtual machine, a packet with a second source address. When the second source address is the same as the first source address, the method allows the packet to be forwarded. When the second source address is not the same as the first source address, the method blocks the second packet. An additional method determines the first source address from an initial packet sent from the virtual machine instead of the address allocation method. | 10-01-2015 |
