Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to systems and methods for intelligent load shedding. More specifically, various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to intelligent load shedding of traffic based on current load state of target capacity. In some embodiments, a first server can send a capacity request indicating that the first server is nearing capacity and needs assistance with load. In response to the capacity request, an assistance request can be published to additional nearby servers. The servers can respond with a status update providing load and availability information. Based on the load and availability information (or other information such as latency), a second server from the additional servers can be selected and traffic can be routed away from the first server to the second server.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to systems and methods for intelligent load shedding. More specifically, various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to intelligent load shedding of traffic based on current load state of target capacity. In some embodiments, a domain name resolution request to translate a domain name into an Internet protocol (IP) address can be received at DNS server. A status of each of multiple scaling units mapped to the domain name can be determined. A set of IP addresses (e.g., four IP addresses) corresponding to a subset of the multiple scaling units closest to the requesting device with statuses indicating availability for new traffic can be identified. Then, the set of IP addresses can be sent to the requesting device. The requesting device can the select which IP address to use (e.g., randomly) to route the traffic.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to systems and methods for intelligent traffic management and routing. More specifically, various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to intelligent traffic management of cloud-based services based on predicted traffic and current load capacity of servers or scaling units. In some embodiments, traffic associated with one or more subnets can be monitored. Then using a record of historical traffic patterns and current traffic patterns, a prediction of future traffic can be generated. The predication can then be translated into an estimated load for one or more scaling units or servers. The current status of the one or more scaling units capable of handling traffic can be determined and future traffic can be routed based on the prediction generated and the status of the one or more scaling units.

Abstract: Performance information is gathered on a client, and indicates the performance of a hosted service with respect to the client. A cross origin resource sharing system shares the performance information with an analysis system, that is separate from the hosting service.
