Network request data is collected over a time window. The network request data is filtered to generate bypass network traffic records. Network performance categories are generated from the bypass network traffic records. Sufficient statistics of network optimization parameters are calculated for the network performance categories. The sufficient statistics of the network optimization parameters are used to generate network optimization parameters to determine data download performances of web applications.

A device determines, from a network slice template associated with a network slice, a quality of service (QoS) profile for the network slice that includes performance metrics for corresponding QoS parameters associated with providing a service. The device monitors performance of the network slice in association with the QoS profile, and determines, based on the performance, that a performance indicator for a QoS parameter of the network slice is outside a threshold range of a performance metric. The device determines, based on the performance information and the QoS profile, a slice modification to the network slice template for the network slice, where the slice modification is configured to cause the performance indicator to be within the threshold range of the performance metric. The device causes a network slice orchestrator to update an instantiation of the network slice according to the slice modification and the network slice template.

A real-time dynamic API traffic shaping and infrastructure resource protection in a multiclient network environment is provided. A traffic rules engine (TRE) applies traffic shaping only to customers that are utilizing “more than their fair share” of the currently available bandwidth without allowing them to negatively impact the user experience of other users. The present invention takes current API traffic into consideration, allowing one or a few high volume users to utilize most of all available bandwidth as long as other users do not need that bandwidth. This includes dynamically measuring and adjusting which users had traffic shaping applied to them based on the overall traffic during any given second. The solution of the present invention avoids any slowdown of customer API requests unless the maximum allowable TPS limit is near to being reached.

Detect, at a cable/fiber broadband network termination unit of a cable/fiber broadband multi-service operator, an interruption in service to a cable/fiber broadband network customer unit—small cell pair. Responsive to detecting the interruption, the termination unit advises a charging server of the operator of the interruption in service, a corresponding identifier of the customer unit—small cell pair, and a corresponding account identifier. Responsive to termination unit advising the charging server, the charging server advises a backend server of an associated cellular network of a customer identifier corresponding to the account identifier. Responsive to the charging server advising the backend server, the backend server advises a policy control function of the associated cellular network to modify network parameters of the associated cellular network to compensate for the interruption in service.

A method and system for outcome-based workload configurations for IT environments. Existing solutions directed to implementing multi-tier configurations on bare-metal IT infrastructure tend to require specialized tools and skills on a tier-by-tier basis. A more unified approach, where a single or singleton configuration that defines and implements the desired state (or outcome) of one or more tiers, is sought and thus proposed. Within this disclosure, implementation of workload deployment policies, is emphasized.

A network quality determining method includes, when experience quality represented by a customer experience index of a target user within a first time period is lower than experience quality represented by a customer experience index threshold, determining, using a first parameter value that is of a network key performance indicator (KPI) parameter of the target user within a second time period and that is collected by a collection device in a carrier network, a second parameter value of the network KPI parameter of the target user within the second time period in a home network, and when network quality represented by the second parameter value of the network KPI parameter is lower than network quality represented by a first threshold corresponding to the network KPI parameter in the home network, determining that quality of the home network is poor.

Embodiments of this application provide a network optimization method, a network optimization system, and a network device, and relate to the communications field. A first network device adjusts, if it is detected that a communications link between the first network device and a second network device is in an abnormal state, a metric of at least one data flow received by the first network device; and the first network device selects a transmission path for the at least one data flow based on adjusted metric, and transmits the at least one data flow to the selected transmission path. In this way, load of the communications link is reduced, and the communications link is restored to a normal state.
