  • Publication number: 20260222383
    Abstract: A system and method for management and processing of resource requests is provided. A content delivery network service provider receives a DNS query from a client computing device. The DNS query corresponds to a requested resource from the client computing device. The content delivery network service provider associates the client computing device with a cluster of other client computing devices. Based on routing information for the cluster, the content delivery network service provider routes the DNS query. The process can further include monitoring performance data associated with the delivery of the requested resource and updating the routing information for the cluster based on the performance data for use in processing subsequent requests from client computing devices in the cluster.

  • Publication number: 20240214460
    Abstract: A system and method for content distribution are provided. A content provider generates a network topology having one or more subnetworks made up of content sources. The content provider segments content, such as applications, into segments for distribution. The content provider then distributes the content such that for each identified subnetwork, each content segment is distributed to a content source. Subsequent, client computing device requests for content can be serviced by selecting a content source in a particular subnetwork selected for delivering the requested content to the client computing device to minimize traffic flow of the requested content through the nodes of the distribution network.

  • Patent number: 11275850
    Abstract: At an object storage service, one or more security rules to be implemented for a request directed to an unstructured object are identified, including a content query-based rule. The query-based rule indicates a query predicate and a security enforcement action. A value of an attribute is extracted from the unstructured object using a rule obtained via a programmatic interface, and used to verify that the predicate is satisfied. The security enforcement action is then implemented.

  • Publication number: 20210021692
    Abstract: A system, method and computer-readable medium for request routing based on content popularity information are provided. A client computer transmits a request for content from a content provider. The content provider utilizes executable code, such as translation request code, for facilitating request routing utilizing popularity information. The translation request code, may direct a client computing device to request further translation request code and/or translation information. Thereafter, the client issues a DNS query with the translated information including popularity information. The content delivery network service provider can then either resolve the DNS query with an IP address of a cache component or transmit another alternative resource identifier that will resolve to the content delivery network service provider. The process can repeat until a DNS nameserver resolves a DNS query from the client computing device.

  • Patent number: 10868861
    Abstract: A request to copy at least a portion of a first network that includes a first set of devices is received, the request including one or more filtering criteria, with at least one of the one or more filtering criteria specifying a tag assigned to a device of the first set of devices. At least the portion of the first network is copied by causing the system to create, according to the one or more filtering criteria, a second network by causing a second set of devices to be configured to be duplicative of devices of the first set of devices that are assigned the tag specified by the filtering criteria.

  • Patent number: 10855751
    Abstract: A transcoding service is described that is capable of transcoding or otherwise processing content, such as video, audio or multimedia content, by utilizing one or more pipelines. A pipeline can enable a user to submit transcoding jobs (or other processing jobs) into an available pipeline, where a transcoding service (or other such service) assigns one or more computing resources to process the jobs received to each pipeline. The transcoding service and the pipelines can be provided by at least one service provider (e.g., a cloud computing provider) or other such entity to a plurality of customers. A service provider can also provide the computing resources (e.g., servers, virtual machines, etc.) used to process the transcoding jobs from the pipelines.
