Abstract

Some embodiments provide a method for controlling flow processing by an edge cluster including a first edge machine set operating in a first location set of a public cloud and a second edge machine set operating in a second location set of the public cloud. A controller set configures first and second managed forwarding element (MFE) sets operating in the first and second location sets respectively, with first and second forwarding rule sets to respectively forward first and second flows sets to the first and second edge machine sets for performing services. The first forwarding rule set specifies a first network address set for the first edge machine set, and the second forwarding rule set specifies a second network address set for the second edge machine set. The controller set monitors each edge machine to determine whether it is available to perform the services.
