Evaluating IT Service Delivery amongst ISPs from Nicaragua
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an evaluation of IT service delivery by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) from Nicaragua at the end of 2009. The evaluation is supported by a methodological approach based on IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) v.2 concepts and case study techniques. The evaluation involved three ISPs that are nation-wide Internet Service Providers with more than ten years running. We describe the current practices and limitations of IT service delivery in ISPs from Nicaragua. Finally, we argue that existing IT service delivery practices amongst ISPs have matches to ITIL processes, although the ITIL processes are not known amongst them.

Peering Strategic Game Models for Interdependent ISPs in Content Centric Internet
Emergent content-oriented networks prompt Internet service providers (ISPs) to evolve and take major responsibility for content delivery. Numerous content items and varying content popularities motivate interdependence between peering ISPs to elaborate their content caching and sharing strategies. In this paper, we propose the concept of peering for content exchange between interdependent ISPs ...

Most CDNs pay more attention to CSP (Content Service Provider) to gain more profit from faster access rate and lower server load. However they ignore that the CDNs pay the ISPs (Internet Service Provider) for using the underlying networks based on the traffic volume generated by CDN servers. ISPs expect to save their operational cost from inter-ISP traffic and improve the QoS (Quality of Servic...

متن کاملExploiting Overlays for Practical and Profitable Traffic Attraction
The Internet is heading towards efficiency with the continued deployment of technologies such as Content Distribution Networks (CDN) and with the introduction of Peer-toPeer (P2P) localization. These technologies reduce the amount of costly traffic that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) must send to other ISPs. While these advances will undoubtedly cause many residential ISPs to gain profit, th...
متن کاملEconomic Effects of Multi-Homing and Content Delivery Networks on the Internet
Peering points between different network providers are among the bottlenecks of the Internet. Two technical solutions to bypass them are content delivery networks (CDN) and multihoming (MH). While quality of data delivery can thus be improved, there is no research that analyses the economic effects of those technologies on the Internet. This paper argues that CDNs and MH reduce the commodity na...
