Hey,
As a brief intro, I am in charge of Analytics/ML/AI as a Cisco Fellow. We have been studying a number of paths characteristics through the Internet both single and multi-SP, Best-effort/Business Internet backbone/MPLS, … across all regions in the world and lately focussing on SaaS, going beyond the traditional delay/loss/jitter but computing various statistical moments, using stats/ML to detect trends/seasonality, path variances, etc … Such studies are used to enhance our best path selection algorithms in various contexts such as SD-WAN, … using reactive and predictive analytics.
