Abstract
An isolated packet processing cell of a packet processing service, comprising an action implementation node and a decision master node, is assigned to an application. An indication of processing rules of the application is transmitted to the decision master node. In response to receiving a particular packet, the action implementation node obtains a representation of an action (which is based on the processing rules) from the decision master node and executes the action.
