Abstract
A method for handling connection requests. The method includes receiving, by an operating system (OS), a request from an application to create a connection, wherein the request comprises a connection identifier and a service-level agreement (SLA), determining that the application is authorized to create the connection, creating the connection targeting the application in response to the determination that the application is authorized to create the connection, and applying the SLA to the connection in response to the determination that the application is authorized to create the connection. The method further includes receiving incoming data targeting the connection identifier from a network, processing, by a network protocol stack on the OS, the incoming data according to the SLA to obtain processed incoming data, and providing the processed incoming data to the application. Similar processing may be done on outgoing data from the application to the network.
