  • Patent number: 11736982
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for the pseudo-cooperative load balancing and/or distribution of traffic and/or other types of data by independent nodes. Techniques described herein may be considered “pseudo-cooperative” in that the resulting distribution of traffic and/or other data may resemble load balancing techniques in which various nodes, that serve as an ingress for data for distribution and/or other types of processing, communicate with each other (e.g., share context information) in order to perform load balancing in a coordinated or cooperative manner. In contrast, nodes in accordance with some embodiments described herein may perform load balancing with the same or similar results (e.g., a relatively even distribution of traffic and/or other data), without communicating with each other, thus saving time, processing resources, and/or other resources.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10735453
    Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein provide a managed security service that distributes processing tasks among a number of network security modules working in parallel to process component portions of a replayed network traffic stream. If a network security module detects a potential security threat, the network security module may generate a delivery request specifying other information potentially useful in further investigation of the potential security threat. The delivery request is communicated to a plurality of other processing entities, such as the other network security modules, and any processing entity currently receiving the requested information may respond to the delivery request. Once a source of the requested information is determined, the requested information is routed to the origin of the request.
