چکیده

We describe a new architecture for an open Content Delivery Network (CDN) built from a single software component, Request-Redirector, collocated with the web server. The Request-Redirector encapsulates all the functions that a CDN requires. In particular, a mechanism to redirect client requests to edgeservers; a local network proximity database used to select the best edge-server; and a mechanism to embed a JavaScript probing program in the response message that reports back network proximity measurements. Conversely to existing solution where edge-servers are tightly coupled with other CDN components, in ours they constitute a confederation of independent servers conforming to a standard and simple interface.

Hybrid Content Networking Architecture

Content delivery networks (CDNs) can be defined in many ways. Basically CDNs are intelligent networks that understand the type of content request, where to find it, and how to deliver it in an efficient way. Now the network to be intelligent enough to do all this requires specialized techniques both at the application level as well as the network level. Caching of requested objects enhances the...
