Various arrangements for performing navigation based on characteristics of a cellular network are provided. A quality of experience (QoE) level required for a wireless service to be performed for a networked device may be determined. A current location and a destination for a vehicle may be determined. A wireless network coverage area map may be accessed that maps network performance characteristics for the cellular network across a geographic region. A navigation route from the current location to the destination based on the wireless network coverage area map and the determined QoE may be determined. The determined navigational route may be output to a navigation system.

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.

A communication system including a registry, a traffic service-level classifier, and a network traffic controller receives messages from a communication address, and performs a proactive address verification process to determine a class of service for the network traffic controller to utilize for the communication address, thereby unlocking additional functionality for the communication address on the network.

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.
