Path Routing for Communication Sessions

摘要

Techniques for path routing for communication sessions are described. In at least some embodiments, a communication session refers to an exchange of communication data between different nodes in a network. According to various embodiments, a routing path for a communication session includes peering points between different networks to enable communication sessions to be routed between devices connected to the different networks. In an event that performance degradation occurs in a communication session over a particular routing path, techniques discussed herein enable the communication session to be rerouted to a different routing path. The different routing path, for example, may be indicated as providing a higher quality data flow than the original routing path. Thus, rerouting the communication session can improve the quality of user experience during the communication session.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and one or more computer-readable storage media including instructions stored thereon that, responsive to execution by the at least one processor, cause the system perform operations including:
receiving an indication of performance degradation in a communication session across a current routing path;identifying a set of alternative routing paths for routing the communication session by:
searching a group of routing paths for routing paths that are available for routing the communication session; andselecting the set of alternative routing paths from the available routing paths based on performance metrics for the alternative routing paths; andproviding an indication of the set of alternative routing paths to enable the communication session to be rerouted via one of the alternative routing paths.
