Abstract

Embodiments described herein provide for the pseudo-cooperative load balancing and/or distribution of traffic and/or other types of data by independent nodes. Techniques described herein may be considered “pseudo-cooperative” in that the resulting distribution of traffic and/or other data may resemble load balancing techniques in which various nodes, that serve as an ingress for data for distribution and/or other types of processing, communicate with each other (e.g., share context information) in order to perform load balancing in a coordinated or cooperative manner. In contrast, nodes in accordance with some embodiments described herein may perform load balancing with the same or similar results (e.g., a relatively even distribution of traffic and/or other data), without communicating with each other, thus saving time, processing resources, and/or other resources.
