Abstract
Aspects of remote edge virtualization management are described. An edge hypervisor shadow application is executed. The edge hypervisor shadow application acts as an Input/Output for an edge hypervisor that is IP inaccessible to a virtualization service. The edge hypervisor shadow application receives a hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) communication from the virtualization service. A Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) message is generated to include the HTTP request, and is published to an MQTT broker service, the MQTT message comprising the HTTP request.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- at least one computing device comprising one or more processors;
- and
- instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the at least one computing device perform operations comprising
- executing an edge hypervisor shadow application that provides Input/Output (I/O) functionalities for an edge hypervisor that is IP inaccessible to a virtualization service, wherein the edge hypervisor shadow application is IP accessible to the virtualization service;
- receiving, by the edge hypervisor shadow application, a hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) request from the virtualization service, wherein the HTTP request comprises virtualization instructions for the edge hypervisor;
- generating, by the edge hypervisor shadow application, a Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) message that includes the HTTP request;
- and
- publishing, by the edge hypervisor shadow application to an MQTT broker service, the MQTT message that includes the HTTP request;
- receiving, by the edge hypervisor shadow application, a response MQTT message comprising an HTTP response that the edge hypervisor generates in response to the HTTP request;
- extracting, by the edge hypervisor shadow application, the HTTP response from the MQTT message;
- and
- transmitting, by the edge hypervisor shadow application, the HTTP response to the virtualization service.
