    Abstract: Systems and methods for sloppy routing are provided. A client transmits a DNS query corresponding to a requested resource to a content delivery network (CDN) service provider. In some embodiments, the CDN service provider processes the DNS query to determine whether a threshold content delivery bandwidth has been exceeded by data links at cache servers. In other embodiments, additionally or alternatively, the CDN service provider determines whether a content provider has exceeded a threshold network usage that indicates a price at which the CDN service provider to provide content on behalf of the content provider. Using both or either of these thresholds, the CDN service provider can further process the DNS query by providing an alternative resource identifier or a cache IP address, both associated with an alternative POP. In some embodiments, the CDN service provider determines a routing mode for the response to the DNS query.

    Abstract: A distributed database management system comprises database nodes located in a plurality of availability zones. The system receives a request to store a table, and determines to store a number of replicas of the table in one or more availability zones. The system obtains information indicating that one of the availability zones has been designated as preferred. The system identifies a set of database nodes in the preferred availability zone, where the number of database nodes in the subset is sufficient to determine quorum among the replicas. The replicas are stored on the identified set of database nodes.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that enable high-data-rate network communications by use of a data transmission system, which can at least partially redirect data transmitted between two computing devices on a public network to a private network. The data transmission system may include a variety of endpoints at different locations, such that source and destination computing devices may pass information into and out of the data transmission system via the endpoints. To ensure that endpoints are able to communication with each computing device via a path of sufficient network quality, the data transmission system may dynamically generate additional endpoints within points of presence of the system. Where no endpoints or points of presence have a connection of sufficient quality to a source and destination computing device, the data transmission system may decline to transmit data, and instruct the source or destination computing devices to utilize traditional communication channels.
