Publication number: 20240089197Abstract: Methods and apparatus for interfaces to manage inter-regional connectivity for direct network peerings. A system may include a connectivity coordinator, a first resource collection in a first geographical zone and a second resource collection in a second geographical zone. The coordinator implements a programmatic interface defining connectivity operations. The coordinator receives a request via the interface to establish a logically isolated network path to the second resource collection on behalf of a client that has a dedicated physical link set up to connect to the first resource collection. In response to the request, the coordinator performs one or more configuration operations to enable traffic to flow from the client's network to the second resource collection over a logically isolated network path using the dedicated physical link.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Andrew J. Doane, Kevin Christopher Miller, David B. Lennon

Patent number: 9141947Abstract: Methods and apparatus for differential bandwidth metering in a network implementing direct peerings. A system includes a plurality of resource collections and a billing manager. The billing manager obtains a first metric of network traffic transmitted on behalf of a client to obtain one or more services from one or more resource collections. The billing manager also obtains a second metric of network traffic transmitted on behalf of the client over one or more private links, where each private link is set up to establish a network path between a respective client network of the client and a respective resource collection of the plurality of resource collections. The billing manager provides composite billing information to the client comprising a differential billing amount dependent upon a difference between the first metric and the second metric.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2011Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Michael B.

A system may include a data center, endpoint routers and a connectivity coordinator. The coordinator implements an interface defining connectivity operations. The coordinator receives a request for dedicated connectivity to data center resources, formatted according to the interface. The coordinator determines a connectivity provider to provide last-mile connectivity to the requester, and transmits a notification identifying the selected connectivity provider.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2011Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Christopher Miller, Krishna P.

Patent number: 8495199Abstract: Methods and apparatus for interfaces to manage service marketplaces accessible via direct network peerings. A system may include a plurality of resource collections and a connectivity coordinator. The coordinator implements a programmatic interface defining connectivity operations. A first client may implement a service using one of the resource collections. The coordinator may use the interface to notify a second client that the service implemented by the first client is accessible via a dedicated direct physical link set up on behalf of the second client. In response to a subscription request for the service, the coordinator performs one or more configuration operations to enable a request for the service from the second client to be routed using the second client's dedicated physical link.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2011Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Christopher Miller, Anish Sukumaran, Jeremy T.
