Methods, systems, and computer readable media for monitoring, adjusting, and utilizing latency associated with accessing distributed computing resources

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for monitoring, adjusting, and utilizing latency associated with accessing distributed computing resources are disclosed. One method includes measuring a first latency associated with accessing a first computing resource located at a first site. The method further includes the measuring a second latency associated with accessing a second computing resource located at a second site different from the first site. The method further includes selectively impairing transmission of packets to or processing of packets by at least one of the first and second computing resources in accordance with a performance, network security, or diagnostic goal.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
