Abstract:
Techniques are described herein for retrieving application status data from a service provider and making a path selection based on that application status data. In some embodiments, the techniques may comprise receiving a request to access an application hosted by a service provider, generating a first data that includes an application programming interface (API) call to the application that includes at least an identifier for a tenant, determining a set of potential paths between the edge device and the application hosted by the service provider, providing the first data to the application endpoint via at least one path of the set of potential paths, receiving second data including an application status generated from metrics obtained in relation to the tenant, and selecting, based on the second data, a path of the set of potential paths to be used by the tenant to access the application.
