Publication number: 20210392202Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure relate to artificial intelligence log processing and CDN optimization. In examples, log data is processed at a node of the CDN rather than transmitting all of the log data for remote processing. The log data may be processed by a model processing engine according to a model, thereby generating model processing results. Model processing results are communicated to a parent node, thereby providing insight into the state of the node without requiring transmission of the full set of log data. Model processing results and associated information may be used to alter the configuration of the CDN. For example, a model processing engine may be added or removed from a node based on a forecasted amount of log data. As another example, edge servers of a node may be added or removed based on expected computing demand.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2021Publication date: December 16, 2021Applicant: Level 3 Communications, LLCInventors: William R.

Publication number: 20210392037Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for network configuration management systems and methods. In some embodiments, the discloses systems and methods may involve receiving data from one or more nodes within a particular network. The data may include, for example, topology, telemetry, geographical, and other data relating to the nodes, the network, and/or the functionality of the nodes or network. Once received, such data may be cleaned and processing may be performed on the data. Such processing may involve clustering the data into groups based on various parameters and performing forecasting on the data to determine future usage rates and capacity information, for example. The clustering and forecasting results may be fed to a rules engine and/or an optimization engine, which may then determine appropriate actions to take on the network (e.g., changes to various nodes in terms of technology and/or number of nodes).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2021Publication date: December 16, 2021Applicant: Cox Communications, Inc.Inventors: Jignesh Patel, Ted Boone, Richard Brown, Kyle Cooper, Derek Bantug
