==Systems and Methods to Provide Dynamic Capacity Adjustments in Different Anycast Regions - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240048525 titled 'Systems and Methods to Provide Dynamic Capacity Adjustments in Different Anycast Regions

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract of the patent application describes a method for localizing client requests by using multiple anycast regions and separate anycast addresses for each region. When anycast servers in one region fail or become overloaded, additional anycast servers from another region with available capacity can be dynamically added to handle client service requests in the first region.

* The patent application proposes the use of multiple anycast regions and separate anycast addresses to localize client requests.
* When anycast servers in one region fail or become overburdened, additional anycast servers from another region can be dynamically added to handle client service requests.
* The additional anycast servers are selected from a geographically or logically separate anycast region that has the capacity to handle the client requests.
* The method allows for efficient handling of client service requests by dynamically redistributing the workload across multiple anycast regions.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Content delivery networks (CDNs) can use this technology to improve the performance and reliability of their services by localizing client requests and dynamically adding anycast servers as needed.
* Cloud service providers can benefit from this technology by optimizing the distribution of client requests across multiple regions and ensuring high availability of their services.
* Internet service providers (ISPs) can use this technology to enhance their network infrastructure and improve the quality of service for their customers.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Overloaded or failed anycast servers in one region can cause service disruptions or degradation for clients. This technology solves this problem by dynamically adding anycast servers from another region with available capacity.
* Localizing client requests can improve the performance and response time for clients by reducing network latency.
* The method allows for efficient utilization of resources by redistributing the workload across multiple anycast regions based on their capacity.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved reliability and availability of services by dynamically adding anycast servers from separate regions.
* Enhanced performance and response time for clients by localizing client requests.
* Efficient utilization of resources by redistributing the workload across multiple anycast regions based on their capacity.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

multiple anycast regions may be defined, and a separate anycast address may be used for each region in order to localize client requests. in examples, when one or more anycast servers in a first anycast region fail or become overburdened (or are predicted to do so), one or more anycast server in another, geographically or logically separate anycast region that has additional capacity to handle client service requests may be dynamically added to the first anycast region.
