Patent number: 12058052Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2022Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Atefeh Khosravi
