Abstract
Systems and method for automated efficient memory migration in Non-uniform Memory Access (NUMA) based virtual machines are introduced, comprising exporting one or more informative data objects, from a host machine to at least one virtual machine, wherein the informative data objects include references to pages that have been migrated from a physical source memory node (source node) on the host machine to a new source location on the host machine; inspecting, the informative data objects, by the at least one virtual machine; detecting, by the at least one virtual machine, the pages that have been migrated to the new source location; sending a request, by the at least one virtual machine, to the host machine via the hypervisor, to map the pages to a physical destination memory node (destination node) corresponding to a desired virtual destination memory node (destination vNode); and undertaking at least one efficient data migration operation.
