1. A method for migration of a flow profile of a computing entity, comprising:
receiving, at a first host, a first flow profile of the computing entity, the first flow profile based on first one or more flow measurement values for first one or more flows exchanged between the computing entity and a service while the computing entity is running on a second host;
receiving, at the first host, the computing entity migrated from the second host;
utilizing, at the first host, the first flow profile to reduce a flow rate for at least one of a second one or more flows;
identifying, at the first host, second one or more flow measurement values for the second one or more flows exchanged between the computing entity and the service while the computing entity is running on the first host; and
updating the first flow profile based on the second one or more flow measurement values.
