Unified network traffic controllers for multi-service environments

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• obtaining, at a network traffic controller of a cloud computing environment, (a) a first set of traffic data of a first service of a distributed system, and (b) a second set of traffic data of a second service of the distributed system, wherein the first service is implemented at least in part using one or more resources of the cloud computing environment, and wherein the second service is implemented at least in part using a resource external to the cloud computing environment;
• determining, at the network traffic controller, based at least in part on analysis of at least one set of traffic data of the first and second sets of traffic data, a recommended configuration change for traffic flowing between the first service and the second service;
• and
• causing, by the network traffic controller, the recommended configuration change to be implemented.

A system, comprising:

• one or more computing devices;
• wherein the one or more computing devices include instructions that upon execution on or across the one or more computing devices cause the one or more computing devices to:
• obtain, at a network traffic controller of a cloud computing environment, (a) a first set of traffic data of a first service of a distributed system, and (b) a second set of traffic data of a second service of the distributed system, wherein the first service is implemented at least in part using one or more resources of the cloud computing environment, and wherein the second service is implemented at least in part using a resource external to the cloud computing environment;
• identify, at the network traffic controller, based at least in part on analysis of at least one set of traffic data of the first and second sets of traffic data, a recommended configuration change for traffic flowing between the first service and the second service;
• and
• cause, by the network traffic controller, the recommended configuration change to be implemented.

One or more non-transitory computer-accessible storage media storing program instructions that when executed on or across one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:

• obtain, at a network traffic controller of a cloud computing environment, (a) a first set of traffic data of a first service of a distributed system, and (b) a second set of traffic data of a second service of the distributed system, wherein the first service is implemented at least in part using one or more resources of the cloud computing environment, and wherein the second service is implemented at least in part using a resource external to the cloud computing environment;
• identify, at the network traffic controller, based at least in part on analysis of at least one set of traffic data of the first and second sets of traffic data, a recommended configuration change for traffic flowing between the first service and the second service;
• and
• cause, by the network traffic controller, the recommended configuration change to be implemented.
