Patent ID: 11388272

Abstract:
Technologies for network packet processing between cloud and telecommunications networks includes a network computing device which includes two application layer packet translators (ALPTs). The first ALPT is configured to receive a network packet from a computing device in a telecommunications network, identify a virtual network function (VNF) instance, and perform an application layer encapsulation of at least a portion of data of the received network packet as a parameter of a remote procedure call (RPC) associated with the identified VNF instance. The first ALPT is additionally configured to invoke the identified VNF instance using an API call corresponding to the RPC that includes the RPC parameter and the VNF instance is configured to transmit an RPC call response to the second ALPT. The second ALPT is configured to generate a new network packet as a function of the RPC call response and transmit the new network packet to another computing device in a cloud network.
