Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to establish a data pipeline between cloud computing platforms. An apparatus includes at least one memory, machine readable instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the machine readable instructions to at least extract a data producer name from data, the data to be provided from a data producer to a data consumer, identify a buffer identifier based on a mapping of the data producer name to the buffer identifier, cause transmission of the data to a buffer associated with the buffer identifier, and cause transmission of the data from the buffer to the data consumer based on an association between the buffer identifier and a data consumer name, the data consumer name corresponding to the data consumer.

Methods and apparatus for data pipelines between cloud computing platforms

Techniques for ingesting data streams to a distributed-computing system using a multi-directional data ingestion pipeline are provided. In one embodiment, a method for ingesting data streams includes, at a client gateway, receiving a plurality of messages; assigning the plurality of messages to one or more data streams; obtaining stream routing configurations; and identifying one or more receivers. The method further includes determining whether at least one of the one or more data streams is to be delivered to one or more receivers operating in the first computing environment; and if so, delivering the at least one of the one or more data streams to the one or more receivers operating in the first computing environment. The method further includes delivering the one or more data streams to a data ingress gateway operating in a second computing environment.

Secure multi-directional data pipeline for data distribution systems

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to establish a data pipeline between cloud computing platforms. An apparatus includes a producer registration controller to register a data producer with a data pipeline service in a public cloud network, the data producer associated with a private cloud network, a consumer registration controller to register a data consumer with the data pipeline service, and a communication controller to, in response to the registration of the data consumer, transmit data generated by the public cloud network from the data consumer to the data buffer via a first data plane gateway, and, in response to a validation of the data consumer, transmit the data from the data buffer to the data consumer via a second data plane gateway, the first data plane gateway different from the second data plane gateway.

Multiple instances of a distributed application are run in a Kubernetes cluster. An updated version of the application must undergo some post-launch initialization before a production workload handled by the original version can be switched to the updated version. Accordingly, a temporary update-monitor pod is inserted into the cluster so that it can query the application as to its update status and report it to a log file. A script external to the cluster can read the log file to determine if initialization is complete. If so, the workload can be switched to the update instance. The temporary update-monitor pod is destroyed to free up resources and to ensure that it is does not pose a security vulnerability.
