  • Patent number: 11425042
    Abstract: A system and method for management of communications for components of a global accelerator system is provided. The global accelerator system includes client devices communicating with a global access point via a public network to access various endpoints that can host services. In turn, a global access point communicates to various endpoints, which are organized into different data centers, via a private network. The global access point creates and manages separate TCP connections between the client and global access point and the client and endpoint to improve latency experienced by clients. Additionally, each TCP connection can be managed by specifying different congestion control and windowing parameters to leverage higher throughput between the global access point and a selected endpoint.

  • Patent number: 11419171
    Abstract: This application provides a subflow establishment method. A local-end device obtains an identifier of an operator currently accessed by a network interface card of the local end device. The local-end device obtains a plurality of IP addresses of a peer-end device and identifiers of operators to which the plurality of IP addresses are homed; and establishes, by matching a plurality of operators corresponding to the local-end device and the plurality of operators corresponding to the peer-end device, a subflow between an IP address pair homed to a same operator. In this way, the established subflow does not cross operators as far as possible. This reduces negative impact of cross-operator communication of some subflows on transmission performance of a multipath connection, thereby better leveraging an advantage of the multipath connection in transmission performance in comparison with a single-path connection.
