Abstract
A system comprising nodes coupled to a network including virtual links in an overlay network provisioned over an underlay network. The system includes a virtual machine (VM) provisioned at a node and coupled to the network. The VM is configured to receive feedback data of link conditions, and use the feedback data to dynamically determine and adapt an optimal route through the network. The VM is configured to control routing of traffic flows using the optimal route. The routing includes split routing of a traffic flow from the node via two or more of the virtual links.
