Abstract

Systems and methods are described herein generally relating to network security, and in particular, embodiments described relate to systems and methods for deploying microservices in a networked microservices system. For example, a method is disclosed, which calls for receiving a request to instantiate a microservice, selecting a suitable virtual machine (VM), wherein the selecting comprises calculating the suitability of the virtual machine based on a property load and a property weight, deploying the microservice on the selected virtual machine, configuring the microservice to communicate with an interface microservice, and configuring the microservice to perform security processing on packets processed within a security service.
