Abstract: A method of data bandwidth overhead reduction in a protocol based communication over a Wide Area Network (WAN) includes transmitting, through a sender device of a source location, data packets of a sequence to a receiver device of a destination location communicatively coupled to the sender device through the WAN and storing a copy of the transmitted data packets in the sender device for a first threshold duration of time. When the receiver device receives a non-consecutive data packet, the receiver device waits for a second threshold period of time before transmitting a NAK message to the sender device related to non-receipt of one or more out-of-order data packet(s). The sender device interprets the NAK message and retransmits the one or more out-of-order data packet(s) to the receiver device after which the one or more out-of-order data packets are removed.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods to provide application acceleration as a service. In one embodiment, a system includes a head office to serve an enterprise application comprised of a collaborative document. The system also includes a branch office to request the collaborative document from the head office. The enterprise application may also include a computed document and/or a static document. In addition, the system also includes a set of Point of Presence (POP) locations between the head office and the branch office to communicate the collaborative document, the computed document and the static document on behalf of the head office from a closest POP location to the head office to a closest POP location to the branch office and then onward to the branch office.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and/or a system for defining logical channels and channel policies in an application acceleration environment. In one aspect, a system includes a branch site including a branch client. A headquarters site includes a headquarters server, the branch site and the headquarters site are communicatively coupled over a logical link via a transmission media. A first point of presence (POP) is communicatively coupled with a branch customer premise equipment (CPE) located at the branch site over a first segment of the logical link. A second POP is communicatively coupled with the first POP over a second segment of the logical link. Each segment of the logical link is constructed from a physical link and contains two segment endpoints. The physical link carries a network traffic of the network connection between the two segment endpoints of an associated segment.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of incremental computation of billing percentile values in a cloud based application acceleration as a service environment. In one aspect, a method includes sampling a usage data of a network entity of an application acceleration as a service provider in intervals of five minutes using a processor and a memory. A 95th percentile value is automatically calculated based on a next value in the billing cycle after the top 5% of samples in the billing cycle. The 95th percentile value of each of a plurality of billable units for each of billing measurements for a large scale data associated with the network entity is incrementally computed by computing the 95th percentile value upon a newest set of data arrived to the network entity in each five minute interval. A billing amount is determined based on an incremental computation.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus and/or a system of data compression through redundancy removal in an application acceleration environment is disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes generating through a fingerprint module of a redundancy removal engine associated with a first network element a hash identifier of at least one portion of data of a contiguous data block stored in a bidirectional cache memory of the redundancy removal engine associated with a first network element. The size of contiguous data block is larger than the size of the at least one portion of data of the contiguous data block for which the hash identifier is generated. The method further includes compressing a data stream through a transmission compression module of the redundancy removal engine based on the at least one a hash identifier that is indexed.
