Cooperative Load Sharing Among Loosely Coupled Or Independent Video Servers (2011)
By Xavier Denis, Robert Duzett, ARRIS
As video delivery systems are tasked with larger and larger content libraries, significantly larger streaming loads across increasingly broader geographies, and a wide diversity of client devices, the need for more dynamic scaling and virtualized provisioning of large on-demand resource pools is apparent.
This paper examines strategies and policies for enabling a logically-shared video delivery load across multiple independent but networked video servers, and provides insight into practical applications such as efficient and scalable models for the origin, mid-tier, or edge caching points of a Content Delivery Network (CDN).
