DYNAMIC CONFIGURATION OF NETWORK FEATURES
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- performing, by an edge appliance configured to access an elastic cloud computing network, real-time traffic analysis on network traffic flowing between the elastic cloud computing network and the edge appliance, the real-time traffic analysis comprising analysis of application data transported as part of the network traffic;
evaluating an effect of modifying elastic network bandwidth allocation from a network service provider of the elastic cloud computing network, and an effect of applying network traffic optimizations in routing traffic flowing between the elastic cloud computing network and the edge appliance; and
dynamically configuring, based on the real-time traffic analysis and on the evaluating, one or more of (i) elastic network bandwidth allocation from the network service provider or (ii) at least one network traffic optimization, of the network traffic optimizations, for performance by the edge appliance in routing traffic flowing between the elastic cloud computing network and the edge appliance.
