Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques for improving routing policy awareness in a network. The method includes detecting, by a controller, an application initiated for use at an edge node of a network. Then, generating, by an analytics engine coupled to the controller, analytical data of traffic flow at the edge node of the network wherein the traffic flow is in accordance with a routing policy for routing traffic associated with the application. Further, routing of the traffic through a path from one or more paths configured at the edge node that is in accordance with at least a Service Level Agreement (SLA) for traffic flow. Also, in response to an SLA violation during routing of the traffic, causing an action, by the controller, of routing traffic flow through another path that is in accordance with at least the SLA for traffic flow based on analytical data received of the traffic flow.
