Abstract
A network navigation system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a routing software code, and communicatively coupled to multiple hardware nodes of a communication network. The hardware processor executes the routing software code to monitor performance data for each hardware node, identify a network destination for a content stream, identify a source hardware node for providing source content of the content stream based on the performance data, and identify hardware transmission nodes for delivery of the content stream based on the performance data. The source and transmission nodes determine a first network route for delivery of the content stream. The routing software code also receives test data for the first network route during delivery of the content stream, and determines a second network route for delivery of the content stream if the test data fails to meet a predetermined test standard.
