Abstract: Implementations of the systems and methods discussed herein provide for distributed HTTP proxy services with synchronization of per-server or per-tenant resource allocation counters amongst the proxy devices, allowing devices to quickly identify denial of service attacks or other malicious or erroneous behavior. In some implementations, a database server may receive resource consumption notifications from each of a plurality of proxy devices and may aggregate the notifications or increment a counter on a per-server or per-tenant basis, and provide updated counter values to proxy devices via callbacks. Each proxy device may check the counter value before utilizing resources, and may disable or block proxy processing responsive to the counter exceeding a threshold.

Abstract: Described implementations provide systems and methods generating and using live performance maps of a network environment for selecting combinations of proxies and servers for fulfilling client device requests. Proxy devices or connectors may gather network telemetry data from actual network flows between client devices and application servers or other resources traversing the proxy devices or connectors, when available, or by generating synthetic transactions to measure network telemetry data when actual flows are unavailable. The telemetry data may be provided to a management service, which may generate a performance map. The performance map may be provided to the proxy devices and/or a cloud proxy service for selection of optimal combinations of connectors and resources for client requests. Incoming client requests may be steered or redirected to the selected optimal combination. The performance map may be dynamically regenerated as network conditions change and/or as servers are deployed or undeployed.
