Abstract
State information of a radio-based application, used to process messages of the application, is made accessible from a first compute instance and a second compute instance at a virtualization server. The first instance is assigned to process a first portion of a workload of the application, including a message which comprises a result of a network function executed at a network function accelerator of the server. In response to determining that a condition for migrating workload from the first compute instance has been met, an additional message of the first portion is directed to the second compute instance. The second compute instance processes the additional message using the state information.
