Abstract
Technology for migration of a computing instance is provided. In one example, a method may include receiving instructions to initiate migration of the computing instance from a first host to a second host. A first message for sending to the first host may be generated which includes instructions to send data representing the computing instance to the second host. The first message may further include encryption information for use in deriving at least one key for encrypting communications to the second host from the first host. A second message for sending to the second host may be generated which includes instructions to receive the data representing the computing instance from the first host. The second message may further include information for use in deriving at least one key for decrypting communications from the first host. The first and second messages may be sent to the respective first and second hosts.
