Telemetry stream performance analysis and optimization

摘要

A computer-based method for improving the timely delivery of telemetry or other application-to-application data. A telemetry routing table is stored in memory that includes entries for a plurality of communication pathways for delivering a telemetry message from a telemetry application running on a first computer system to a telemetry reception application running on a second computer system. The table entries include a latency and a measured data delivery rate for transmittal of data over the corresponding pathway. The method includes generating a telemetry message having a particular data payload using the telemetry application and then selecting one of the communication pathways using the telemetry application based on a size of the data payload, the latencies, and the data delivery rates for the pathways (e.g., determining a total transit time for the payload for each pathway and selecting the pathway corresponding to the shortest transit time).
