Abstract: A device may receive a request to establish a connection between a first device and a second device. The request may include information identifying a network connectivity type. The device may determine one or more network devices to provision based on the network connectivity type; determine, based on the network connectivity type, provisioning parameters used to provision the one or more network devices; and provision the one or more network devices in accordance with the provisioning parameters to establish the connection between the first device and the second device.

Abstract: An intelligent network interconnect may include a control channel and a plurality of nodes. The plurality of nodes may include a first node coupled to a first network and a second node coupled to a second network. Each of the plurality of nodes is coupled to the control channel. The intelligent network interconnect may also include a control device coupled to the control channel. The intelligent network interconnect may be configured to: collect network data from the first node and the second node, wherein the network data includes traffic data of the first network; obtain metrics based on the collected network data; detect an event based on the metrics and the collected network data; and a rule whose condition matches the event; and send a command over the control channel, to one or more of the nodes, to perform an action associated with the rule.

Abstract: A server may receive flow information from multiple network devices. The flow information may include information regarding multiple data flows received by the multiple network devices and destined for a client device. The server may determine generate an optimization instruction, based on flow information, to re-route one or more of the plurality of data flows or to apply filters to the one or more of the plurality of data flows; provide the optimization instruction to cause one or more of the multiple network devices to re-route one or more of the multiple data flows or to apply filters to the one or more data flows to alleviate overloaded network components or to re-route network resources to or from the client device; receive updated flow information after receiving the flow information; generate an updated optimization instruction based on the updated flow information; and provide the updated optimization instruction.
