Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC H

Claim 16:
17. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving flow data associated with communications between nodes of a cloud based network;
determining, based at least in part on the flow data, that a frequency in which a first node is communicating with a second node is greater than a relative frequency in which the first node communicates with a third node;
based at least in part on the frequency being greater than the relative frequency, determining that reducing a networking proximity between the first node and the second node would optimize communications between the first node and the second node and not adversely affect communications between the first node and the third node; and
causing at least one of a redeployment of the first node to a new host of the cloud based network or a network path re-routing between the first node and the second node to reduce the networking proximity between the first node and the second node.
