Patent number: 12010550Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for customer-defined capacity limit plans in communication networks. In one embodiment, a request for a service from a radio-based network is received from a first client device. A network function in the radio-based network is determined to be at a capacity limit. Service from the network function to a second client device to the network function is suspended in response to determining that the network function in the radio-based network is at the capacity limit and based at least in part on a rule set specific to the radio-based network. The first client device is provided access to the network function instead of the second client device.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2021Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Igor A.

Patent number: 11729091Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments that provide highly available data-processing network functions for radio-based networks. In one embodiment, a tunnel host consistently routes network traffic associated with a range of network addresses in a radio-based network to a first instance of a data-processing network function instead of a second instance of the data-processing network function. A problem with the first instance of the data-processing network function is then detected. Additional network traffic associated with the range of network addresses is redirected from the first instance of the data-processing network function to the second instance of the data-processing network function.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Diwakar Gupta, Kiran Kumar Edara, Igor A.

Patent number: 11711759Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for on-demand application-driven network slicing. In one embodiment, it is determined that an application implemented in a particular computing device has an increased quality-of-service requirement in order to send or receive data via a communications network. The increased quality-of-service requirement is greater than an existing quality-of-service provided to the application by the communications network. The application sends a request that causes capacity in a network slice having the increased quality-of-service requirement in the communications network to be allocated for the application. The data is transmitted to or from the application using the network slice.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2022Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Diwakar Gupta, Kiran Kumar Edara, Igor A.
