Abstract
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for balancing network loads across distinct provider networks using enriched network traffic flow data. In one implementation, network traffic flow data representative of network traffic exchanged between a first provider network and a second provider network is generated. The network traffic flow data is enriched using at least one enrichment feed. A network load indication for the first provider network is calculated using the enriched network traffic flow data. The network load indication is a function of a bandwidth measurement and a distance measurement.
