A management server includes a configuration and management module processing server configuration information, including a VPN peer list and VLAN/subnet settings. The management server automatically calculates the VPN configuration information, including the VPN peer subnet route information identifying which of the subnets participating in the VPN are behind which of the routers and keys to establish VPN tunnels between those routers participating in the VPN. Each of the routers participating in the VPN includes a VPN tunnel with the other routers participating in the VPN, a set of data structures storing data identifying contact information for each of the subnets participating in the VPN, a combination of an IP address and port to reach one of routers that that subnet is behind, and a forwarding module to forward traffic between the subnets.

Systems and methods to manage workloads and hardware resources in a data center or cloud. In one embodiment, a method includes a data center having a plurality of servers in a network. The data center provides a virtual machine for each of a plurality of users, each virtual machine to use a portion of hardware resources of the data center. The hardware resources include storage and processing resources distributed onto each of the plurality of servers. The method further includes sending messages amongst the servers, some of the messages being sent from a server including status information regarding a hardware resource utilization status of that server. The method further includes detecting a request from the virtual machine to handle a workload requiring increased use of the hardware resources, and provisioning the servers to temporarily allocate additional resources to the virtual machine, wherein the provisioning is based on status information provided by one or more of the messages.

Systems and methods are presented for representing non-numerical data objects in an object time series. An object time series of can be created by establishing one or more associations, each association including a mapping of at least one point in time with one or more objects that include properties and values. Visual representation of an object time series may include displaying non-numerical values associated with objects in the object time series in association with respective points in time.

Generating object time series from data objects

A system for streaming packet captures over the Internet includes multiple network access devices, each operating as one of a gateway device, a wireless access point, and a network switch, and a management server communicatively coupled to the network access devices over the Internet for managing the network access devices. The management server maintains a persistent hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) connection with each of the network access devices over the Internet. The management server is to generate a bytecode based on a filtering expression for packet captures (PCAPs) representing one or more PCAPs filtering rules, transmit the bytecode to the network access devices without requiring the network access devices to compile the PCAPs filtering rules, receive PCAPs from the network access devices captured by the network access devices based on the PCAPs filtering rules, and merge the PCAPs received from the network access devices into merged PCAPs.

A cloud broker gateway interfaces with an enterprise network and one or more public cloud networks, including a first public cloud and a second public cloud. The cloud broker gateway receives a request for one or more computing resources from a tenant associated with the enterprise network, and directs the request to the first public cloud based on a brokerage policy for the tenant. The cloud broker gateway receives a response indicating the first public cloud cannot provide the one or more computing resources, and redirects the request to the second public cloud based on the brokerage policy for the tenant. The cloud broker gateway also establishes a hybrid cloud that provides access to the one or more computing resources between the second public cloud and the enterprise network.

Systems, methods, and media for generating heat maps of event data are provided herein. Methods may include gathering instances of event data according to a performance characteristic, discretely decomposing the instances by applying at least one constraint to the instances, assigning a hue to each instance, the hue being associated with the at least one constraint, and generating a heat map that includes representations of the instances, wherein each representation includes the hue associated with the at least one constraint to which the instance has been assigned.
