Methods and apparatus for determining low latency network connectivity in computing systems

Abstract:

An example apparatus comprises a variable determiner to: parse a plurality of network command responses from a first data collector agent and from a second data collector agent; initialize a value for network connectivity parameters corresponding to the network command responses, the value corresponding to the parsed plurality of network command responses; and assign weighted values to the network connectivity parameters; a connectivity analyzer to determine a first network connectivity factor for the first data collector agent and a second network connectivity factor for the second data collector agent; and a recommender system to: determine whether the first network connectivity factor is a smaller value than the second network connectivity factor; and when the first network connectivity factor is the smaller value, initiate the first data collector agent corresponding to the first network connectivity factor to begin collecting data.
