A system and method for load balancing using a rendezvous hashing load balancer. The method includes generating a lookup table, the lookup table having cells that define a row and a column, wherein each of the row of the lookup table corresponds to an index, and each of the column corresponding to an identifier of a resource of a plurality of resources towards which the load balancer provides access, generating, for each of the cells, a first hash result based on an index of the each of the cells, and a corresponding resource identifier, each of the corresponding resource identifier associated with a unique resource of the plurality of resources, sorting the column of the lookup table for each of the row, based on the first hash result, and storing the sorted lookup table in a memory of the load balancer.

Load balancing system and method

Methods and systems are provided for generating a traffic simulation respective of at least one content storing server, the content storing server operative for caching popular content. One method includes sniffing traffic between at least a first portion of a network and at least a second portion of the network, identifying, from the sniffed traffic, at least a source of content and at least a destination of the content, determining if the content is stored on a cache, simulating a notification respective of the content, and generating a simulation of traffic respective at least of: the content and the simulated notification.

System and method of performing analytics with respect to content storing servers caching popular content

A method for identification of popular content provided over a first portion of a network to a second portion of a network in the form of packets containing, the method comprises identifying a source of content in the first portion of a network. Deep-packet-inspection (DPI) is performed to determine if content in each packet related to the content is to be stored in a storage that is in a path between the content source and at least a user node in the second portion of the network. The content is stored. A request is received from the user node for a requested content. It is determined if the requested content or portions of the requested content is in the storage. if the requested content or portions of the requested content is missing in the storage, a request is sent to the content source for the requested content or missing portions of the requested content.

Methods for detection of content servers and caching popular content therein

A method for symmetric receive-side scaling (RSS) in a network device having an ingress side RRS router and an egress side RSS router and a plurality of queues for handling packets. The method comprises identifying an internet protocol (IP) version being used for the network. The transport layer headers (TLHs) existence status is identified. A secret key by each of the egress side RSS router and the ingress side RSS router is identified. The key is based on the identification of the IP version and the TLHs existence status. The secret key ensures that packets sent from a source to a destination and packets sent from the destination to the source are routed by the egress side RSS router and the ingress side RSS router to a common queue among the plurality of queues. The secret key is stored at a storage in the network device. The secret key is used by the ingress side RSS router and the egress side RSS router for routing packets.
