A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a network performance optimization service is provided. A load balancer device may receive, from an end device, an application service request for an application service that is available from multiple server devices of an application layer network. The load balancer device may determine, from a source identifier associated with the end device and obtained from the application service request, that the source identifier does not map to a network traffic forwarding rule of a set of stored network traffic forwarding rules. In response, the load balancer device may map the source identifier to an application service profile of a set of stored application service profiles; select, based on the application service profile, a first server device of the multiple server devices and establish the first server device to be the destination of the application service request.

An adaptive congestion control device ('ACCD') may dynamically optimize network congestion control for different active flows. The ACCD may initiate a first flow that is associated with a first set of flow parameters, may select a first congestion control algorithm from a plurality of congestion control algorithms based on the first set of parameters, and may control transmission of packets for the first flow according to the first congestion control algorithm. While the first flow is active, the ACCD may initiate a second flow that is associated with a different second set of flow parameters, may select a different second congestion control algorithm from the plurality of available congestion control algorithms based on the second set of parameters, and may control transmission of packets for the second flow according to the second congestion control algorithm.

Systems and methods for dynamic optimization of network congestion control

A controller may identify a problematic path from several paths over which to route egress traffic from a site, may determine a threshold amount of traffic to shift from the problematic path, and may implement different potential traffic shifts for shifting similar amounts of traffic as the threshold amount. The controller may provide the labels or header values that different nodes in the site may place in the egress traffic in order to control which path is used to distributed that egress traffic. The controller may modify routing policies affecting different Autonomous System numbers, address prefixes, or other routing parameters to select and/or shift egress traffic, that is associated with those routing parameters and that is about equal to the threshold amount of traffic, from the problematic path to a different path.
