Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to optimize or otherwise improve packet flow among virtualized servers are disclosed and described. An example apparatus includes a load balance list generator to identify abstracted network resources in a virtualized network based on a utilization status parameter of the abstracted network resources, generate a load balance list including the identified abstracted network resources, the load balance list including a number of the abstracted network resources satisfying a threshold, and generate a network routing configuration for data packets in the virtualized network based on the generated load balance list. The example apparatus further includes a policy adjustor to adjust a policy of a physical hardware resource corresponding to one of the one or more abstracted network resources based on the network routing configuration to distribute a packet flow among the abstracted network resources.
