Systems and methods to manage and efficiently implement functional proxy services are disclosed. In the proxy services, a single instance of exit-node is connected to at least two or multiple supernodes at any given time. One of the plurality of supernodes is configured to ping and send diagnostic requests to the connected exit-node through a network. The exit-node is directed to send the pong message and diagnostic response data to a different supernode from among the plurality of supernodes connected to the exit-node. Likewise, a client's request is received by an element of the proxy service provider and forwarded to a specific supernode capable of forwarding the client's request to the exit-node. After performing the client's request, the exit-node returns response data to a different supernode from among the plurality of supernodes connected to the exit-node.

Transmitting request and response information through different proxies

Systems and methods herein provide for a proxy infrastructure. In the proxy infrastructure, a network element (e.g., a supernode) is connected with a plurality of exit nodes. At one of a plurality of messenger units of the proxy infrastructure, a proxy protocol request is received directly from a client computing device. The proxy protocol request specifies a request and a target. In response the proxy protocol request, a selection is made between one between one of the plurality of exit nodes. A message with the request is sent from the messenger to the supernode connected with the selected exit node. Finally, the message is sent from the supernode to the selected exit node to forward the request to the target.

Managed exit nodes and third party proxy providers in a proxy infrastructure

System and method for efficiently implementing scalable, highly efficient decentralized proxy services through proxy infrastructures situated in different geo-locations. In one aspect, the systems and methods enable users from any geographical location to send requests to the geographically closest proxy infrastructure. One exemplary method described allows proxy infrastructures to gather, classify, and store metadata of exit nodes in its internal database. In another aspect, systems and methods described herein enable proxy infrastructures to select metadata of exit nodes from its internal database and forward requests from a user device to respective proxy servers or proxy supernodes to which the selected exit nodes are connected.

Methods and systems for implementing a regionally contiguous proxy service

Systems and methods for coordinating network connectivity and communication between proxy servers, exit-nodes and client modules are disclosed. In one aspect, proxy-nodes in a proxy infrastructure accept connections with exit-nodes based on geographical proximity or proxy-node metrics. Further, a proxy-node can communicate and instruct another proxy-node to service the client request via a suitable exit-node. Further still, a proxy-node can communicate and instruct proxy-node to redirect a suitable exit-node towards the first proxy-node in order to service the client request. In another aspect, the proxy-infrastructure enables client modules to connect to proxy-nodes based on geographical proximity, client parameters, and client's behavioral informatics. In yet another aspect, proxy infrastructure enables a proxy node to redirect exit-nodes to a different proxy-node in the event of a) system overload or resource exhaustion, b) graceful shutdown c) erroneous network connection between exit-nodes and the proxy-node.

Network coordination between proxy servers

Systems and methods for coordinating network connectivity and communication between proxy servers, exit-nodes and client modules are disclosed. In one aspect, the proxy infrastructure enables network connectivity between exit-nodes and proxy-nodes without the need of any proxy-gateways or middleware entities to delegate the connections. Proxy-nodes in the proxy infrastructure accept connections with exit-nodes based on geographical proximity, proxy-node metrics, such as server loads and clients' frequent preferences. Further, a single instance of proxy-node can communicate and instruct another instance of proxy-node, to service the client request via a suitable exit-node. Further still, a single instance of proxy-node can communicate and instruct another instance of proxy-node to redirect a suitable exit-node towards the first proxy-node in order to service the client request. In another instance, the proxy-infrastructure enables client modules to connect to proxy-nodes based on geographical proximity, client parameters, and client's behavioral informatics. In yet another aspect, proxy infrastructure enables a proxy node to redirect exit-nodes to a different proxy—node in the event of a) system overload or resource exhaustion, b) graceful shutdown c) erroneous network connection between exit-nodes and the proxy-node.

Graceful shutdown of supernodes in an internet proxy system

Systems and methods for effectively managing exit nodes are provided. The exemplary systems and methods use a Supernode to examine an Exit Node through sending and receiving a request to a Target. Information about the exit node is then stored into the Supernode. According to the information provided from the Supernode, the Exit Nodes Database systemizes the proxies according to availability and provides available exit nodes to a User Device.
