Router packet queuing

A system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one memory having computer executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause operations to be performed, the operations including:
• implementing, within a cloud computing platform, a hierarchical quality-of-service policy that includes a parent quality-of-service sub-policy in relation to a child quality-of-service sub-policy;
• receiving telecommunication traffic as part of a cellular service platform implemented through the cloud computing platform;
• and
• applying, within the cloud computing platform, the hierarchical quality-of-service policy to the telecommunication traffic to satisfy a predetermined level of quality of service;
• wherein:
• the parent quality-of-service sub-policy specifies a logical bandwidth limitation indicated by the cloud computing platform that is lower than a physical capacity of the cloud computing platform;
• the child quality-of-service sub-policy divides an amount of the telecommunication traffic, as limited by the parent quality-of-service sub-policy, into different traffic flows corresponding to different classes of telecommunication traffic;
• and
• the parent quality-of-service sub-policy applies to a tunnel interface within the cloud computing platform.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoding instructions that, when executed by at least one physical processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations including:

• implementing, within a cloud computing platform, a hierarchical quality-of-service policy that includes a parent quality-of-service sub-policy in relation to a child quality-of-service sub-policy;
• receiving telecommunication traffic as part of a cellular service platform implemented through the cloud computing platform;
• and
• applying, within the cloud computing platform, the hierarchical quality-of-service policy to the telecommunication traffic to satisfy a predetermined level of quality of service;
• wherein:
• the parent quality-of-service sub-policy specifies a logical bandwidth limitation indicated by the cloud computing platform that is lower than a physical capacity of the cloud computing platform;
• the child quality-of-service sub-policy divides an amount of the telecommunication traffic, as limited by the parent quality-of-service sub-policy, into different traffic flows corresponding to different classes of telecommunication traffic;
• and
• the parent quality-of-service sub-policy applies to a tunnel interface within the cloud computing platform.
