Abstract
The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing network traffic routing optimizations. One computer-implemented method includes calculating a direct connection cost for network traffic between two points in a network, the network including one or more nodes of an accelerated application delivery (AccAD) network, calculating an AccAD connection cost for the network traffic between the two points in the network using at least one node of the AccAD network, comparing the calculated direct connection cost and the AccAD connection cost, and determining whether the direct connection cost is greater than the sum of the AccAD connection cost and a minimum cost threshold value.
