  • Temporal transaction locality in a stateless environment
    Patent number: 10791161
    Abstract: Temporal transaction locality in a stateless environment may be provided. First, a current message having an identifier may be received. Next, it may be determined, based on the identifier, that the current message is associated with a transaction. Then, in response to determining that the current message is associated with the transaction, the current message may be sent to a target service instance corresponding to the transaction.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 2018
    Date of Patent: September 29, 2020
    Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.
    Inventors: Amit Singh, Bhanushree Krishnamurthy, Alon Shlomo Bernstein, Fabio Giannetti, Brian Patrick Bresnahan
  • Packet loss mitigation in an elastic container-based network
    Patent number: 10476783
    Abstract: Packet loss mitigation may be provided. First, queue control data may be sent to a first container and then a route may be stalled after sending the queue control data. The route may correspond to a data path that leads to the first container. Next, modified queue control data may be received from the first container and the first container may be deleted safely with empty queues, preventing packet loss in response to receiving the modified queue control data.

  • Downstream external physical interface transport in DOCSIS 3.1 network environments
    Patent number: 9692564
    Abstract: An example method for Downstream External Physical Interface (DEPI) in Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) 3.1 network environments is provided and includes generating, at a Converged Cable Access Platform (CCAP) core, a DEPI-Packet Streaming Protocol (PSP) pseudo-wire (PW) packet including a PSP sub-layer header having a same length for a Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) channel and an Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) channel in the DOCSIS network environment, and transmitting the DEPI-PSP PW packet over a DEPI interface to a remote physical layer (R-PHY) entity.
