摘要: A method, apparatus, article of manufacture, and a memory structure for allocating storage of media programs among global and local storage assets for hot and cold storage is disclosed. Trend data is obtained from a plurality of sources including web page click-throughs and social media, indexed and combined with data describing available media programs to identify media programs of interest and reallocate them to hot storage as required. The system uses REST-compliant methods and commands and is therefore pluggable and can be used with a variety of existing systems.

摘要: A method and system is provided for re-routing a flow of packets in a packet-switched network at a rerouting time. In one embodiment, the method comprises accepting packets in a switch, routing the flow of the packets to a first destination via the switch according to a switch flow rule, receiving an updated switch flow rule from a controller before the rerouting time, the updated switch flow rule defining the rerouted flow of packets, and rerouting the flow of packets according to the updated switch flow rule at a rerouting time indicated by a packet of the accepted packets.
