A method and system receives at a server a search request and processes the search request to determine a context of the search request, then determines, based on the context, a network route to an application server having the closest geographic proximity, with respect to the server, to the most relevant database associated with the context.

System and method for managing network traffic routing

Embodiments of a system and method manage a configuration of a plurality of content switching devices in a networked system by generating a first configuration data file and translating the first configuration data file into one or more device specific configuration data files, each device specific configuration file corresponding to a device type of the one or more content switching devices. Some embodiments of the system and method then communicate the one or more device specific configuration data files to each content switching device of a corresponding device type to configure each content switching device.

Content switch management

A system to detect a network deficiency, in one example embodiment, comprises a receiving module to receive utilization metrics of at least one network resource, wherein the utilization metrics are collected and made available at a network level, an aggregator to aggregate the utilization metrics of at least one network resource with the utilization metrics of a plurality of the network resources, a processing module to determine a level of aggregated utilization metrics of the network resources, and a detecting module to detect a precursor indicative of a network traffic deterioration based on the level of the aggregated utilization metrics.

Method and system to detect a network deficiency

Embodiments of a method and system for gateway communication are disclosed. A rate evaluator may be configured to receive a call packet. A quality of service (QOS) specification regarding routing of a local request may be generated for an application according to a business policy. The QOS specification may be available for receipt. A first service gateway may be in communication with the rate evaluator and located in a data center. The first service gateway may be configured to receive the local request from a client machine located in the data center and generate and provide the call packet for the local request to the rate evaluator. The first service gateway may be further configured to receive the QOS specification from the rate evaluator, and route the local request according to the QOS specification to a second service gateway not in the data center.
