MANAGEMENT OF DISTRIBUTED ENDPOINTS

A system and method for management of communications for components in a global accelerator system is provided. The global accelerator system includes client devices communicating with a global access point via a public network to access various endpoints that can host services. In turn, a global access point communicates to various endpoints, which are organized into different data centers, via a private network. To facilitate exchanges on behalf of different client devices, the global access points can characterize groupings of endpoints into subgroups or braids. Individual braid communications can be encapsulated and are routed at the data center by a networking equipment using 5-tuple information in packets. The components within individual braids can broadcast or multi-cast state information via management messages to ensure failover or mitigate duplicative processing.
