Processing packet routing information

A method for managing routing information comprising:

• obtaining routing information from one or more computing devices, the routing information corresponding to routing tables maintained by the one or more computing devices;
• processing the routing information provided by the one or more computing devices to identify modifications to a current version of routing tables;
• updating the current version of the routing tables based on the routing information provided by the one or more computing devices, the updated current version indicative of the identified modifications;
• and
• in response to identification of the modifications to the current version of routing tables:
• identifying, based at least in part on the identified modifications, at least a one additional computing device that should receive the updated current version of the routing tables indicative of the identified modifications;
• and
• distributing the updated current version of the routing tables to the identified at least one additional computing device.

A system for managing routing information comprising:

• a first network point of presence, wherein the first network point of presence transmits first routing information corresponding to routing tables maintained by one or more computing devices associated with the first network point of presence;
• a second network point of presence associated with a content delivery network service provider, wherein the second network point of presence transmits second routing information corresponding to routing tables maintained by one or more computing devices associated with the second network point of presence;
• and
• one or more computing devices configured to implement a routing information management component for:
• obtaining routing information from the first and second point of presence, the routing information corresponding to routing tables associated with the first and second points of presence;
• processing the routing information provided by the first and second points of presence to identify modifications to a current version of routing tables;
• updating the current version of the routing tables based on the routing information provided by the first and second points of presence, the updated current version indicative of the identified modifications;
• and
• in response to identification of the modifications to the current version of routing tables:
• determining, based at least in part on the identified modifications, at least one additional point of presence to which to distribute the updated current version of the routing tables indicative of the identified modifications;
• and
• selectively distributing the updated current version of the routing tables indicative of the identified modifications to the at least one additional point of presence.
