Abstract
An example method is provided for a computing device to provide quality of service (QoS) for a container in a virtualized computing environment. The method may comprise receiving a traffic flow of packets from a virtual machine and identifying a container from which the traffic flow originates based on content of the received traffic flow of packets. The container may be supported by the virtual machine. The method may further comprise retrieving a QoS policy configured for the identified container. For example, the QoS policy may specify a network bandwidth allocation for the container. The method may further comprise forwarding the received traffic flow of packets according to the QoS policy.
