A method can include monitoring a level of network traffic to a server. The method can include setting a clock rate of one or more cores of a processor of the server based on the monitored level of network traffic.

Systems and methods for reducing power consumption by monitoring network traffic

A system and method for performing dynamic load balancing in a network load balancer device. A network packet flow is monitored in a load balancer device for detecting dropped network packets, or a sampling of traffic flow, in the monitored network packet flow. Metadata (e.g., a 5-tuple) is created for the detected dropped network packets or sampling of network traffic flow. The metadata is then transmitted to a flow processing analysis device for performing load balancing flow processing. Upon analysis, a determination is made in the flow processing analysis device for determining reconfiguration load balancing settings for the load balancer to mitigate occurrence of unintended dropping of network packets in the load balancer and/or improve its overall performance. The reconfiguration load balancing settings are then transmitted to the load balancer device, whereupon receipt the load balancer changes its settings in accordance with the determined reconfiguration settings.

Method and system for dynamic load balancing

A processor having kernel space and user space and a method is provided. The method includes receiving in the user space at least one interface statistic about each hardware interface of one or more hardware interfaces receiving packets, wherein the at least one interface statistic is provided from the hardware interface. The method further includes dynamically adjusting, from within the user space, a priority at which each of the one or more hardware interfaces is polled as a function of the at least one interface statistic.

Statistic-based adaptive polling driver

A system and method of accessing a container environment having one or more containers is provided. The method of the disclosure includes receiving the container network namespace assigned to the container as established in a container runtime, switching from a host container network namespace to the container network namespace of the container, opening the container network interface of the container network namespace for allowing access to packets received or transmitted by the container network interface, and accessing the packets.
