Application: Dynamic core assignment for virtual machines in public cloud environments (Patent ID: US20240103932A1)
The patent filed by Zscaler Inc. describes systems and methods for dynamic core assignment for virtual machines in public cloud environments. The process involves booting up a software package for a virtual node with N processes initially configured to operate on N cores. The configuration of the virtual node is determined based on communication within the cloud system. Depending on the configuration, the processes are either configured to operate on individual cores or, for improved performance, some processes are operated on multiple cores while others are omitted after a reboot.
The method outlined in the patent includes steps for booting up the software package, determining the configuration based on cloud communication, and adjusting the core assignment accordingly. The configuration can be fetched from a central authority node, and users may be prompted for performance selection before rebooting. Different configurations, such as cluster and standalone configurations, impact the core assignment, with load balancing functions and service functionality child processes distributed across cores. The patent also covers the use of non-transitory computer-readable mediums to execute the described steps, emphasizing the dynamic nature of core assignment for optimizing performance in cloud-based systems.
