Flexible Server Selection using DNS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many service providers prepare multiple servers to cope with over loading. In such cases, the problem is how to select the best server. Existing mechanisms impose user extra e ort or have less exibility. In this paper, we describes exible and wide applicable server selection mechanism. We add server selection function to DNS. It can coordinate various server evaluation methods and selection mechanisms.

A Precise and Efficient Evaluation of the Proximity Between Web Clients and Their Local DNS Servers
Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) attempt to improve Web performance by delivering Web content to end-users from servers located at the edge of the network. An important factor contributing to the performance improvement is the ability of a CDN to select servers in the proximity of the requesting clients. Most CDNs today use the Domain Name System (DNS) to make such server selection decision...
متن کاملEstimation of domain name system ( DNS ) server load distribution
Domain name system (DNS) resolution service is usually provisioned by multiple authoritative servers for performance and robustness. Estimating the query load distribution among multiple authoritative servers is one of the key issues arising with DNS server load balancing and optimization. We propose an analytical model of Round-Trip-Time (RTT)-sensitive server selections consisting of cache se...
متن کاملMyXDNS: A Request Routing DNS Server With Decoupled Server Selection
This paper presents the architecture and the preliminary evaluation of a request routing DNS server that decouples server selection from the rest of DNS functionality. Our DNS server, which we refer to as MyXDNS, exposes well-defined APIs for uploading an externally computed server selection policy and for interacting with an external network proximity service. With MyXDNS, researchers can expl...
متن کاملDNS-based Mechanism for Policy-added Server Selection
Many service providers on the Internet use multiple mirror servers to cope with request congestion. Here, the problem is how to select the best server out of them. We propose a DNS-based mechanism for server selection with preferred policies. DNS (Domain Name System) is used in almost all services and implementations. Therefore, our approach is generally applicable. The mechanism consists of tw...
متن کاملImproved Recursive DNS Server Selection for Multi-Interfaced Nodes
A multi-interfaced node is connected to multiple networks, some of which might be utilizing private DNS namespaces. A node commonly receives recursive DNS server configuration information from all connected networks. Some of the recursive DNS servers might have information about namespaces other servers do not have. When a multi-interfaced node needs to utilize DNS, the node has to choose which...
