Patent ID: 8117306

Claim:
A system for monitoring performance associated with processing a resource request, the system comprising: a client computing component associated with a client computing device, wherein the client computing component is operable to determine a first set of performance data associated with processing a resource request, wherein the resource request corresponds to one or more resources; a performance measurement component associated with the client computing device, wherein the performance measurement component is operable to determine a second set of performance data associated with processing the resource request; and a processing component operable to: obtain, from the client computing component, the first set of performance data associated with processing the resource request; obtain, from the performance measurement component, the second set of performance data associated with processing the resource request; identify one or more content delivery networks to be utilized in conjunction with a subsequent resource request, wherein the one or more content delivery networks host content on behalf of a content provider and wherein the subsequent resource request corresponds to at least one of the one or more resources; for each identified content delivery network: cause an initiation of the subsequent resource request associated with the identified content delivery network; obtain, from the client computing component and the performance measurement component performance data related to processing of the subsequent resource request using the identified content delivery network; and dynamically determine a content delivery network based on the first and second sets of performance data and the performance data related to processing the subsequent resource request using each of the one or more identified content delivery networks.
