Abstract
A router architecture that facilitates cloud exchange point routing is disclosed. The architecture relies upon B-nodes to connect branch network to cloud, S-nodes to connect services, and V-nodes to connect cloud to cloud. The nodes can be essentially stateless with node configuration stored outside a router, which facilitates ripping and replacement of nodes. Multiple virtual private clouds can be implemented with respective pluralities of Kubernetes pods and a master Kubernetes cluster. Consumer premises equipment is coupled to a first virtual private cloud that forms a virtual extensible local area network with a second private cloud.
Claims3
A system, comprising:
- one or more hardware processors;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the system to perform:
- updating, by an external orchestration engine, a node configuration datastore with node configuration parameter values;
- and
- triggering, by an on-demand configuration engine based on stimulus, the on-demand configuration engine to configure a stateless node with the node configuration parameter values, wherein the stimulus is indicative of a network resource consumption.
