Bandwidth Broker

A Bandwidth Broker is like a traffic controller for network resources. It manages and allocates bandwidth—the amount of data that can travel over a network—so that different applications or users get the appropriate share. This ensures smooth and efficient communication, especially when demand is high. By prioritizing certain types of traffic or reserving capacity in advance, a Bandwidth Broker helps maintain reliable connections, prevents congestion, and supports quality of service across complex networks. Think of it as a coordinator that ensures the network’s capacity is used optimally and fairly.
