Abstract: The present describes a traffic routing system to establish a connection with a primary service location, receive a list of service location peers from the primary service location, execute a performance test of the primary service location and each of the service location peers, identify a best performing service location based at least in part on the performance test, and update a database with results of the performance test of the primary service location and each of the service location peers. The traffic routing system may use business rules to expand the criteria to identify the best performing service location. The business rules may include weights that prioritize certain performance characteristics of corresponding service locations including bandwidth cost, energy cost, or idle capacity.

Abstract: A system includes a memory device configured to store instructions and a processing device configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory to receive a network identifier uniquely identifying a network segment that is operating at or near capacity, identify at least one streaming server that is streaming to the network segment based at least in part on the network identifier, and apply a rate limiting value to the at least one streaming server to limit a stream rate to at least one client in the network segment.
