In one embodiment, a method according to the present disclosure includes receiving a topology change advertisement at a remote core edge node and performing a network address information removal operation. The topology change advertisement is received from a core edge node that is in communication with an access network. The topology change advertisement indicates that a topology change has occurred in the access network. The network address information removal operation removes network address information stored by the remote core edge node. The network address information is used by the remote core edge node in participating in communications with the core edge node.

Methods and systems disclosed herein relate to determining a projected change in bandwidth demand in a specified area during a specified future time period, repositioning one or more balloons in a high-altitude balloon network based on the projected change in bandwidth demand, and providing, using the one or more balloons, at least a portion of the bandwidth demanded in the specified area during the specified future time period.

A method and an apparatus for allocating a server to a terminal are provided. The method includes receiving an Internet protocol (IP) packet with a domain name system (DNS) query from a terminal, including terminal location information in the IP packet, transmitting the IP packet to a DNS server, receiving, from the DNS server, a response IP packet location information of a proximity server, the proximity server being located within a certain distance from the terminal, and transmitting the response IP packet to the terminal.

In accordance with an embodiment, the system supports use of an in-memory data grid or other distributed memory environment, for example Oracle Coherence. A partition provides a runtime and administrative subdivision or slice of an application server domain. An application can be deployed to a particular partition, or otherwise associated with a particular domain partition name. The domain partition name can be used by the data grid to enable a separation of data between different partitions or between tenants associated with those partitions. In some embodiments, one or more data grid services, for example caches and clustered services, can be shared across multiple partitions. Alternatively, the data grid can provide read-shared/write-specific access to data grid services, in which multiple partitions can share an initial set of data, but their subsequent modifications to that data are then isolated from each other.

Embodiments described herein generally involve identifying workloads in a networking environment based on a flow record from an observation point. In one embodiment, network data is received from one or more endpoints and used to determine a plurality of administrative domains. Each administrative domain comprises a distinct section of the networking environment within which every Internet Protocol (IP) address is unique. The network data may be used to generate observation point mapping information that maps each observation point to an administrative domain, lookup tables associated with each of the plurality of administrative domains that map IP addresses to administrative domains, and a workload identification table that maps combinations of IP addresses and administrative domains to workloads. The flow record is received from the observation point and a source and destination workload of the flow record are identified using the observation point mapping information, applicable lookup table, and workload identification table.

Example embodiments may relate to web interfaces for a balloon-network. For example, a computing device may display a graphical interface that that includes one or more interface features to receive a request for use of bandwidth of a balloon network. In particular, the computing device may receive, via the graphical interface, input data corresponding to a bandwidth request for a first location, where the bandwidth request includes: (i) an indication of the first location and (ii) an indication of time. Subsequently, the computing device may receive an indication corresponding to whether or not the bandwidth request is accepted, where acceptance of the bandwidth request is based at least in part on expected movement of one or more balloons from a plurality of balloons in the balloon network. As such, the computing device may display, on the graphical interface, the indication corresponding to whether or not the bandwidth request is accepted.

The techniques discussed herein include an offload controller, a virtual routing controller, and/or virtual routing objects. In some instances the virtual routing controller may be configured and/or positioned to peer client premises equipment (CPE). This may include establishing an external gateway protocol session with CPE and generating a virtual routing object based at least in part on the session. In some examples, this virtual routing object may be used to configure routes between a switch and a virtual private cloud (VPC) and/or virtual machine (VM).

Techniques are disclosed relating to enhancing communication of network traffic. In various embodiments, a computer system receives topology information and traffic information. The topology information describes resources of a network that are usable to communicate a plurality of streams among nodes in the network and includes information about a first path and a second path connecting two nodes. Traffic information describes demands for communicating the plurality of streams and indicates demands for communicating a first stream and a second stream between the two nodes. In such an embodiment, the computer system determines, using the topology information and the traffic information, a network schedule that indicates that the first stream is to be communicated over the first path and that the second stream is to be communicated over the second path.

Methods and systems of configuring resources are described. A processor may receive a request to employ a set of resources to perform a task. The processor may display a topology diagram that includes image objects representing the requested resources and input objects associated with configurable resources. The processor may receive parameter values entered via the input objects of the topology diagram displayed on the user interface. The processor may validate that the set of parameter values is acceptable. The processor may, in response to the validating, configure the at least one configurable resource with the set of parameter values. The processor may output a notification indicating that the requested set of resources configured with the set of parameter values is capable of performing the task.

Embodiments are provided herein for facilitating high link bandwidth utilization in a disaggregated computing system. A plurality of general purpose links are used to connect respective pluralities of computing elements. A traffic pattern between respective ones of a first plurality of computing elements of a first type and respective ones of a second plurality of computing elements of a second type is detected. The first and second pluralities of computing elements are dynamically connected through the respective ones of the plurality of general purpose links according to the detected traffic pattern.
