    Abstract: A system and method for management of communications for components in a global accelerator system is provided. The global accelerator system includes client devices communicating with a global access point via a public network to access various endpoints that can host services. In turn, a global access point communicates to various endpoints, which are organized into different data centers, via a private network. To facilitate exchanges on behalf of different client devices, the global access points can characterize groupings of endpoints into subgroups or braids. Individual braid communications can be encapsulated and are routed at the data center by a networking equipment using 5-tuple information in packets. The components within individual braids can broadcast or multi-cast state information via management messages to ensure failover or mitigate duplicative processing.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described to enable routing of network communications in a content delivery system in a manner expected not to exceed the capacity of individual communication links of points of presence (POPs) within the content delivery system. Specifically, a route mapping service is disclosed that can determine the effect of potential DNS records on volumes of traffic expected to reach a POP through individual communication links, and that can alter DNS records such that the expected traffic does not exceed a capacity of those individual communication links. Illustratively, the DNS records may be altered at a level of individual DNS resolvers interacting with the content delivery system, and the volumes of traffic expected to reach a POP through individual communication links can be determined based on a volume of traffic of client computing devices associated with an individual DNS resolver.

    Abstract: A computer implemented availability checking system and method is provided for use with a service provider configured to communicate with one or more client devices and with a content provider. The system includes a computer storage device operative to store an availability data store comprising a list of a plurality of potential endpoints of the service provider and a corresponding plurality of availability information for the plurality of potential endpoints. The plurality of potential endpoints is distributed across a plurality of resource cache components. The system further includes an availability query component operative to transmit a plurality of queries to the plurality of potential endpoints and to receive a plurality of responses from the plurality of potential endpoints. The system further includes an availability analysis component operative to analyze the plurality of responses, to generate the plurality of availability information, and to update the availability data store.
