Abstract
A method for distributed flow steering in a cloud-based architecture includes assigning, by a first server, connection IDs to each of multiple data flows owned by the first server. The connection IDs each include a server ID that uniquely identifies the first server and that is included in a data packet header of each of the multiple data flows owned by the first server. The method further includes identifying, by the first server, a data flow characterized by a data packet header including a connection ID uniquely identifying a second server as the owner of the data flow, and redirecting the data flow to the second server.
