Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for storing a first data object comprising a first set of immutable components, the first data object being associated with a corresponding second data object stored by a remote replication system. A difference is determined between the first set of immutable components of the first data object and a second set of immutable components of the corresponding second data object. A subset of immutable components is identified from the first set of immutable components based on the difference. The subset of immutable components from the first set of immutable components is provided to the remote replication system over a communication network.

Abstract: A number of embodiments can comprise a system. The system can comprise an application and one or more software nodes under control of the application, wherein the application is configured to perform: instructing a software node of the one or more software nodes to route data to a target node of the one or more software nodes; analyzing, using a routing engine, associated paths through the one or more software nodes to the target node, wherein the associated paths comprise at least one path traversing both a mobile enterprise network and a virtual enterprise network; selecting one or more candidate next hop nodes of the one or more software nodes based on the analyzing the associated paths; causing the data to be routed to at least one of the one or more candidate next hop nodes, as selected; and repeating the analyzing, the selecting, and the causing until the data reaches a destination. Other embodiments are disclosed here.

Abstract: An overlay network for use with a data network that routes packets from one location on the data network to another location on the data network, the overlay network comprising one or more software nodes, at least one of the software nodes configured to receive commands from an application, the application including software for generating the commands and sending the commands to the at least one of the software nodes, the commands used by the at least one of the software nodes to control routing of packets, generated by the application, through the data network. In addition, a method of routing packets through a physical network by providing one or more software nodes connected to each other over the physical network to form an overlay network and forming a communications channel between at least one of the software nodes and an application, wherein the application instructs the at least one software node on how to route data over the physical network.

Abstract: A software platform enables the delivery of open access broadband networks by providing a set of capabilities for the physical infrastructure provider, network provider, service providers, and end customers. In particular, the platform virtualizes the underlying network to the service provider so that the service provider is presented with a view that represents the portion of the network that is allocated to them. The platform also provides the capability for customers to dynamically select services and service providers that are available through the network.

Abstract: A system, method and apparatus adapted to provide multiple voice communication carriers access to a data network via a single gateway.

Abstract: A telepresence conferencing system is disclosed in which scheduling and resource and personnel reservations may be made across various entities (i.e.; domains). Additionally, each location that is part of the telepresence conference may selectively, and independently of the other locations, designate all or selected portions of its media stream be carried over a different network from the one used to setup, control, and reserve resources for the telepresence conference.
