Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for improving routing policy awareness in a network. The method includes detecting, by a controller, an application initiated for use at an edge node of a network. Then, generating, by an analytics engine coupled to the controller, analytical data of traffic flow at the edge node of the network wherein the traffic flow is in accordance with a routing policy for routing traffic associated with the application. Further, routing of the traffic through a path from one or more paths configured at the edge node that is in accordance with at least a Service Level Agreement (SLA) for traffic flow. Also, in response to an SLA violation during routing of the traffic, causing an action, by the controller, of routing traffic flow through another path that is in accordance with at least the SLA for traffic flow based on analytical data received of the traffic flow.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for retrieving application status data from a service provider and making a path selection based on that application status data. In some embodiments, the techniques may comprise receiving a request to access an application hosted by a service provider, generating a first data that includes an application programming interface (API) call to the application that includes at least an identifier for a tenant, determining a set of potential paths between the edge device and the application hosted by the service provider, providing the first data to the application endpoint via at least one path of the set of potential paths, receiving second data including an application status generated from metrics obtained in relation to the tenant, and selecting, based on the second data, a path of the set of potential paths to be used by the tenant to access the application.

Abstract: A method of implementing controller-based distributed remote access may include connecting a plurality of edge devices to a controller via a network. The plurality of edge devices may perform hole punching to traverse a network address translation (NAT) gateway to create a NAT hole. The method may also include connecting a client device to the controller. The client device may be directly connected to one of the plurality of edge devices via the NAT hole in the network. The method may further include directly connecting the client device to one of the plurality of edge devices by receiving a query from the client device and returning public IP/ports of a most relevant edge device to the client device, the most relevant edge device being based on attributes of the client device, attributes of the plurality of edge devices, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: Techniques are provided herein for determining a routing path for application traffic based on historic application telemetry and current network telemetry. The techniques comprising determining current metrics for a set of potential paths between an edge device and an application endpoint associated with an application, generating, from the current metrics, a link score for individual paths in the set of potential paths, receiving application status data generated from historic telemetry data associated with the application and the set of potential paths, generating, from the application status data, an application score for individual paths in the set of potential paths, and determining, as a function of the link score and the application score for individual paths in the set of potential paths, a selected path to be used in communications between the edge device and the application endpoint.

Abstract: The present invention provides an intrinsically anti-microbial hollow fiber membrane for filtration of liquids. The membrane comprises a plurality of porous hollow bilayer membrane fibers wherein the liquid enters from outside of the fiber, passing through the porous membrane into the lumen of the fiber and coming out from the hollow ending of the fiber, wherein this configuration provides a liquid outside-in arrangement and retains the filtrate outside. It means that membrane of the invention has built in characteristics to act against microbes in order to provide the use with a safe liquid free from microbes. The outer side or outer wall of the hollow fibers may be configured to become hydrophobic whereas inner side or inner wall of the hollow fiber membrane may be configured to become hydrophilic to enhance the water permeability to a great extent. The hollow fiber membrane may be configured to give it an intrinsic anti-microbial capability. A device containing above said membrane has also been disclosed.
