Abstract
Techniques of packet level redundancy in distributed computing systems are disclosed herein. In one example, upon receiving an original packet to be transmitted from a source host to an application executing at a destination host, the source host generates a duplicated packet based on the received original packet. The source host can then encapsulate the original and duplicated packets with first and second outer headers having first and second header values, respectively, and transmitting the original and the duplicated packets from the source host to the destination host via a first network path and a second network path in the computer network, respectively. Then, the transmitted original and duplicated packets can be de-duplicated at the destination host before providing the de-duplicated original and duplicated packets to the application executing at the destination host.
