Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for predictive content pre-fetching and allocation of resources for providing network service access. In some examples, traffic in a network environment is monitored and a related network service to a requested network service is recognized. A UDP probe for the related network service is sent to at least one candidate server of a plurality of candidate servers within the network environment. A candidate server of the plurality of candidate servers is selected for provisioning of the related network service. The candidate server gathers one or more pre-fetched resources for provisioning the related network service. Accordingly, traffic associated with provisioning of the related network service can be steered to the candidate server by a load balancer for provisioning of the related network service using the one or more pre-fetched resources.

Abstract: The present technology provides a system, method and computer readable medium for steering a content request among plurality of cache servers based on multi-level assessment of content popularity. In some embodiments a three levels of popularity may be determined comprising popular, semi-popular and unpopular designations for the queried content. The processing of the query and delivery of the requested content depends on the aforementioned popularity level designation and comprises a acceptance of the query at the edge cache server to which the query was originally directed, rejection of the query and re-direction to a second edge cache server or redirection of the query to origin server to thereby deliver the requested content. The proposed technology results in higher hit ratio for edge cache clusters by steering requests for semi-popular content to one or more additional cache servers while forwarding request for unpopular content to origin server.

Abstract: Stateless and reliable load balancing using segment routing and an available side-channel may be provided. First, a non-SYN packet associated with a connection may be received. The non-SYN packet may have first data contained in an available side-channel. Next an associated bucket may be retrieved based on a hash of second data in the non-SYN packet. The associated bucket may identify a plurality of servers. Then a one of the plurality of servers may be selected based on the first data contained in the available side-channel.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for reducing distributed storage operation latency using segment routing. In some examples, a method can involve receiving, from a client, a message identifying an intent to store or retrieve data on a distributed storage environment, and sending to the client a segment routing (SR) list identifying storage node candidates for storing or retrieving the data. The method can involve steering a data request from the client through a path defined by the SR list based on a segment routing header (SRH) associated with the request, the SRH being configured to steer the request through the path until a storage node from the storage node candidates accepts the request. The method can further involve sending, to the client device, a response indicating that the storage node has accepted the request and storing or retrieving the data at the storage node that accepted the request.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method that modifies a bit indexed explicit replication (BIER) algorithm. The method includes receiving a packet at a node, wherein the packet includes a BIER header identifying a bitstring, the bitstring including a first bit indicating a first destination and a second bit indicating a second destination and forwarding the packet through one or more networks toward the first destination and the second destination based on the bitstring and a predetermined bit selection order. The predetermined bit selection order causes a sequential delivery of the packet to the first destination and the second destination. After the packet arrives at the first destination, the method includes setting the first bit to zero in the bitstring and forwarding the packet through the one or more networks toward the second destination according to the updated bitstring.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for providing a distributed scalable architecture for Network Address Translation (NAT) systems with high availability and mitigations for flow breakage during failover events. The NAT servers may include functionality to serve as fast-path servers and/or slow-path servers. A fast-path server may include a NAT worker that includes a cache of NAT mappings to perform stateful network address translation and to forward packets with minimal latency. A slow-path server may include a mapping server that creates new NAT mappings, depreciates old ones, and answers NAT worker state requests. The NAT system may use virtual mapping servers (VMSs) running on primary physical servers with state duplicated VMSs on different physical failover servers. Additionally, the NAT servers may implement failover solutions for dynamically allocated routeable address/port pairs assigned to new sessions by assigning new outbound address/port pairs when a session starts and broadcasting pairing information.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods and systems to externally manage network-to-network interconnect configuration data in conjunction with a centralized database subsystem. An example of the methods includes receiving and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, data indicative of user intent to interconnect at least a first network and a second network. The example method further includes, based at least in part on the data indicative of user intent, determining and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, a network intent that corresponds to the user intent. The example method further includes providing data indicative of the network intent from the centralized database subsystem to a first data plane adaptor, associated with the first network, and a second data plane adaptor, associated with the second network.
