Systems and methods are disclosed for routing requests for information based on predictive data. The systems and methods may receive measurement data indicative of states of each of a plurality of destination servers, and generate predicted measurement data values for each of the plurality of destination servers based on the retrieved measurement data. The predicted measurement data values may represent predicted states of each of the destination servers at a time later than a time corresponding to the received measurement data. The systems and methods may also receive requests for information from a client computer, and route the received requests for information to one of the plurality of destination servers based on the predicted measurement data value.

Systems and methods for load balancing using predictive routing

Systems and methods are disclosed for analyzing network traffic data to detect anomalies in the data and determine their causes. In one implementation, a system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to generate a time series of network traffic values. The processor calculates deviation scores for time entries within the time series and detects anomalies in the time series by comparing the deviation score to a predetermined range. If the processor detects an anomaly, it may determine a list of IP addresses of computers on the network that may have caused the anomaly.

Systems, apparatus, and methods for network data analysis

Systems and methods are disclosed for collecting network traffic logs at a plurality of network sites, such as DNS name servers and network routers, and transmitting data extracted from the network traffic logs to a central repository. In one implementation, a system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to retrieve PCAP files from a plurality of servers and extract data from the PCAP files. The data comprises header data and digest data. The processor stores the header data and the digest data in a header/digest pair. In another aspect, the processor retrieves a sample of the PCAP files from each of the plurality of servers rather than retrieving all PCAP files.

Systems and methods for collecting and storing network traffic data

A system, method, and computer-readable medium, is described that enables a parallelizing scheduler to analyze database instructions, determine data dependencies among instructions, and provide a multi-threaded approach to running instructions in parallel while preserving data dependencies.

An asset management system is described that tracks in real-time any metric that a carrier requires pertaining to media assets within a network. In addition to tracking per-asset information relating to usage and air time, the system tracks information pertaining to individual object types (e.g., document, digital image, audio file, streaming media, or the like) as well as specific objects themselves (e.g., individual documents, photos, and the like, on a per-file or named basis). This information can be tracked against the various users and their individual devices (used to access a network). In this manner, the system can provide metrics relating to not only data size and air time, but also metrics about object types (e.g., digital image type) and specific objects (e.g., specific file transferred) that have passed through the network. Based on these various metrics that the asset management system can track, the system generates reports that are transmitted back in real-time to carriers and their e-commerce partners for implementing the various pricing schemes required for supporting their business or revenue models.

The current invention includes an improved system for an e-commerce vendor to seamlessly incorporate products and services from a third party into its own e-commerce site. This system enables the e-commerce vendor to display the third party products and to accept orders and arrange fulfillment of these products through its own site in a manner that is seamless to the end user. When the e-commerce retailer requests product information from the supplier, the supplier provides the retailer with product information and URLs at which additional information can be located. The retailer uses this information to retrieve product images, descriptions and information and to display this information to its customer on its own site. Each of these items is tagged with a unique element identifier that contains a number of details about the product. This information tagged to the product image or description enables the product to be easily identified by both the retailer and the supplier. When the customer purchases the products from the retailer, the necessary information is tagged to the product information and, thus, is available for placement of the order with the supplier. This enables the product order to be routed to and fulfilled by the third party supplier in a manner that is transparent to the customer.

A method and apparatus for self-discovering throttling is described. The system includes a first queue to track a current rate of task completion and a second queue to track an average rate of task completion over time. The system further includes a comparator to compare an average of the first queue and an average of the second queue. The system includes a throttle to adjust the number of connections based on the results from the comparator.

Feedback integration of dynamic operations

An order scheduling system providing a method for distributing product orders to multiple fulfillers is described. This method, which solves the common business problem of scheduling order shipments, is optimal because it minimizes the number of orders across fulfillers, thus minimizing shipping costs. It is also fair because orders are distributed equally across fulfillers if that fulfiller has the product available. To schedule orders, a data structure is defined whose rows are represented by a hash table of Fulfillers (HF), where each column is a hash table of Products (HP) and where each index of HP is itself a bit vector (VP). This gives a three-dimensional data structure. The method operates by performing bitwise ANDing (&) operations of the bit vectors, to generate an Order bit vector representing the optimized fulfillment (per system configuration/constraints) for a particular received order.

An improved Internet delivery system for digitized photographs is described. The system embodies methodologies that speed the delivery of digitized images from photographic film scan centers to consumers across the Internet with high reliability. By delivering all the digital images to a more powerful centralized server infrastructure prior to the consumer's earliest opportunity to view them on-line, these images or pictures can be downloaded to a viewer of interest (e.g., user or family member) quickly enough to provide an appropriate Web response. Optimizations are also described that streamline the throughput with load balancing and provide virtually guaranteed uniform service with fail-over. In this manner, the system provides improved access, storage, and on-line availability of digital images.
