    Abstract: Traffic flow across a backbone network can be determined even though flow data may not be available from all network devices. Flow data can be observed using types of backbone devices, such as aggregation and transit devices. An algorithm can be applied to determine which data to utilize for flow analysis, where this algorithm can be based at least in part upon rules to prevent duplicate accounting of traffic being observed by multiple devices in the backbone network. Such an algorithm can use information such as source address, destination address, and region information to determine which flow data to utilize. In some embodiments, address mapping may be used to attribute this traffic to various services or entities. The data can then be analyzed to provide information about the flow of traffic across the backbone network, which can be useful for purposes such as network optimization and usage allocation.

    Abstract: A backbone service exposes the efficiency of the backbone network using tunnels between any source-destination pairs. The efficiency can be calculated using a ratio of a transmission rate of the packets through a tunnel and a number of hops in the tunnel. The efficiency also can be tracked based upon services using the backbone network in a compute service provider environment. The data generated by the backbone service can be transmitted, stored or displayed for informational purposes to provide insights to service teams on how to improve efficiency in the backbone by change routing behavior, such as by moving caches, adding or removing hops or changing advertisements to network devices.
