ICN-Based Enhanced Content Delivery for CDN

Blog Article

With the rapid growth of internet traffic, the traditional host-to-host TCP/IP architecture is subject to many service limitations faced with content-oriented applications.Various novel network architectures have been proposed to solve these limitations, among which Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is one of the most prominent.ICN features the decoupling of content (service) from the physical devices storing (providing) it through location-independent naming, and offers inherent enhancement to network Building Set performance, such as multicast and in-network caching.

ICN in-network caching has been extensively studied, and we believe that it may also be the main incentive for ISPs to deploy ICN.A CDN (content delivery network) is a typical content-oriented network paradigm that aims to provide the fast delivery of content.In this paper, we leverage the advantages of the in-network caching of ICN to enhance the content delivery efficiency of CDN by integrating ICN as a service.

First, we present our design of a content delivery network enhanced with ICN, called IECDN.Additionally, we formulate a mathematical model to optimize the performance of our proposed design and conduct Kits a series of evaluations.The results indicate that our proposed design provides significant performance gains while reducing bandwidth consumption and shows better resilience to traffic surge.
