Abstract
Systems for provisioning virtual network interfaces (VNIs) for tasks running on a virtual machine instance in a distributed computing environment are provided. The systems receive a request to launch a task corresponding to a plurality of containers in an instance in association with an instruction to provide a VNI for the task with a set of network security rules. The system may select an instance with sufficient resources to launch the task and enable communication using the VNI. The system may inhibit processes running on the instance other than containers associated with the task from communicating via the VNI.
