Abstract:
A user is provided an interface for selecting network connectivity features for designing a virtual private cloud computing network. Each network connectivity feature has an attribute for connecting tangible storage elements and tangible computing elements in the virtual private cloud computing network. Each network connectivity feature is translatable into a network element configuration statement that instantiates an action particular to the network connectivity feature. Usage rules are defined specifying how the network connectivity features can be used. Selected network connectivity features are accepted from the user. The virtual private cloud computing network is configured in accordance with the selected network connectivity features using the tangible storage elements and tangible computing elements in the virtual private cloud computing network. The virtual private cloud computing network is implemented in accordance with the selected network connectivity features using the tangible storage elements and tangible computing elements in the virtual private cloud computing network.
Abstract:
A method of assigning a server to a client system includes determining an ingress point of the client system and identifying possible egress points for the client system. The method further includes selecting the server from a plurality of servers to reduce network cost and delivery time.

Abstract:
A cloud computing network is implemented by defining a plurality of network connectivity features for designing a virtual private cloud computing network within the cloud computing network. Each network connectivity feature has user-definable attributes and each network connectivity feature is translatable into a set of network element configuration statements that instantiate an action particular to the network connectivity feature. Usage rules specifying how the features can be used are defined for the cloud computing network. Selected features from the plurality of network connectivity features are accepted and assembled into a template for configuring the virtual private cloud computing network. The template for configuring the virtual private cloud computing network is validated against the usage rules. The virtual private cloud computing network is implemented in accordance with the validated template for configuring the virtual private cloud computing network.
Abstract:
A system and method to use network flow records to generate information about changes in network routing and to understand the impact of these changes on network traffic. The inferences made can be determinative, if sufficient information is available. If sufficient information is not available to make determinative inferences, inferences may be made that narrow the range of possible changes that may have occurred to network traffic and the underlying network.
