Patent attributes
Example methods are provided to perform data transfer between a first endpoint and a second endpoint. The method may comprise detecting an elephant flow of data from an application executing on the first endpoint for transfer to the second endpoint; and splitting the elephant flow to obtain first packets and second packets. The first endpoint may have cognizance of a first path and a second path between a first network interface of the first endpoint and a second network interface of the second endpoint. The method may comprise establishing a first subflow and a second subflow of a multipath connection with the second endpoint; and sending, over the first network interface, the first packets on the first subflow and the second packets on the second subflow to the second network interface.
