Abstract

In one embodiment, a device predicts, for each of a set of paths via which traffic for an online application can be routed, a distribution of an application experience metric for the online application. The device computes, for different subsets of the set of paths, aggregated distributions of their distributions of the application experience metric predicted by the device. The device makes comparisons between the aggregated distributions for the different subsets of the set of paths. The device causes, based on the comparisons, the traffic for the online application to be routed via a particular subset of the set of paths.
