Abstract

Approaches are described for collecting and/or utilizing network traffic information, such as network flow data, within a virtualized computing environment. The network traffic information can be collected on one or more host computing devices that host virtual machines. The collected network traffic information can include virtualized computing environment specific information, such as a user account identifier (ID), virtual machine identifier (ID), session termination information and the like. The collected network traffic information can also be presented to the user of the virtualized computing environment.
