Abstract: A method for load balancing among multiple endpoint computing systems of a domain includes receiving a request to access the domain; identifying a target endpoint from the multiple endpoint computing systems based on routing logic for the domain; obtaining a load metric for the target endpoint; determining whether the load metric for the target endpoint satisfies an overload condition; and redirecting a fractional portion of traffic of the domain away from the target endpoint and to an alternate endpoint of the multiple endpoint computing systems in response to determining that the load metric for the target endpoint satisfies the overload condition.

Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing distributed traffic management are provided. A data request from a content server is accessed using a content serving agent. The data request is determined to be associated with a corresponding network link based on referencing an exterior protocol topology file. The exterior gateway protocol topology file includes a mapping of Internet Protocol (IP) prefixes to corresponding router-network-link identifiers indicating a router interface. A router-network-link identifier and one or more local control actions for the data request are identified using the control output file that includes a mapping between the router-network-link identifier and the one or more local control actions. Utilization data for the router-network-link identifier is accessed using the utilization data file. The utilization data is determined to be associated with executing one or more local control actions.
