Abstract: A cloud network for delivering local content to a user at a user location. The cloud network includes a client device comprising a local application, a mid-link server and a cloud provider. The mid-link server receives from the client device a request for local data from the user at the user location. The user has provided the request for the local data from the user location without a data center. A sub-data center for the user location is identified and assigned an Internet Protocol (IP) address for the user location. The sub-data center is a data center nearest to the user location. Each data center has IP addresses for different locations to deliver the local content to the respective IP address for the location. The request is routed to the sub-data center which is used to provide the local data to the user by the cloud provider.

Abstract: An Internet Protocol (IP) address assignment method in a cloud-based multi-tenant system for assigning unique IP addresses to a plurality of client devices of a plurality of users. Network traffic including a data request from a client device to a cloud provider via an ingress tunnel is monitored by a mid-link server. A user of the client device is identified from the data request. A policy is identified based on the tenant of the user and a plurality of applications for the client device. An IP address is assigned to the client device of the user based on the policy. Each client device is assigned a unique IP address. The network traffic egresses via an egress tunnel from the mid-link server. The data request is routed from the client device to the cloud provider using the IP address of the client device.

Abstract: A system and method for accelerating web page delivery is disclosed in one embodiment. Web content requests are made to an edge server of a first point of presence (POP) of a content delivery network (CDN). The web content has embedded resource links. The first POP can rewrite the embedded resource links to route requests for the embedded resource links to any POP in the CDN or even the origin server. In some embodiments, the first POP can decide if the first POP and/or another POP referenced in a rewritten embedded resource link should cache and/or accelerate the resource referenced in the embedded resource link.
