Methods, systems, and computer programs for intelligent content delivery using a software defined network and edge computing

A system comprising:

• a memory for storing computer instructions;
• a processor coupled with the memory, wherein the processor, responsive to executing the computer instructions, performs operations comprising:
• receiving, at a first tandem multi-access edge computing server, performance measures from a plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, routing policies from an analytics application in a software defined network;
• storing, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, address and routing information and the routing policies;
• distributing, from the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, the routing policies to the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving from the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers a periodic query of a change to the routing policies;
• when there is a change in the routing policies, distributing the change to the routing policies to the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server an anomaly notification from at least one of the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• and
• instructing an orchestrator server to implement the routing policies responsive to the anomaly notification.

A non-transitory, tangible computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method comprising:

• receiving, at a first tandem multi-access edge computing server, performance measures from a plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, routing policies from an analytics application in a software defined network;
• storing, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, address and routing information and the routing policies;
• distributing from the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, the routing policies to the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving from the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers a periodic query of a change to the routing policies;
• when there is a change in the routing policies, distributing the change to the routing policies to the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• receiving, at the first tandem multi-access edge computing server, an anomaly notification from at least one of the plurality of distant multi-access edge computing servers;
• and
• instructing an orchestrator server to implement the routing policies responsive to the anomaly notification.
