Redundant communication path transmission

Abstract:

Data generated by one or more data producers may be transmitted via multiple communication paths according to a path transmission scheme that divides transmission of different portions of the data amongst different communication paths. Upon a failure of a communication path, transmission of data may continue for those portions of data that are not assigned to the failed communication path. In some embodiments, modifications to the path transmission scheme may be made to change the division of data amongst remaining communication paths in the event of failure.
