  • Patent number: 12015545
    Abstract: Approaches are disclosed for providing path diversity in a data transmission network. A primary transmission path can be selected through a network, such as a backbone network, based on factors such as cost of transmission. At least one waypoint can be selected that is to be included in a secondary transmission path. The waypoint(s) can be selected such that the secondary transmission path will have few, if any, network components in common with the primary transmission path, providing significant path diversity. The waypoint(s) can be selected based on a cost ratio or other such factor. In the event of a failure of transmission of a data packet over one of the transmission paths, a second transmission attempt can be performed using the same path or the other transmission path, or both.

  • Patent number: 11516266
    Abstract: Techniques are described enabling users to transfer the association of a cloud-managed video encoding or decoding device from one region of a cloud provider network to another. A video processing service of a cloud provider network enables users to purchase video encoding or decoding devices that can be used to encode and reliably transfer video content to the video processing service from locations of the users' choice. The video processing service receives a request to transfer the association of a video encoding or decoding device from one region of the cloud provider to another and the video processing service executes workflows that enable the association of a video encoding or decoding device to be transferred to one region from another.
