| Popis: | Video-on-Demand (VoD) service is currently one of the most lucrative business on the Internet. Most VoD services nowadays adopt a centralized-based architecture such that, service providers can have a total control over all system transactions (e.g., watched history, video royalty fee payment). The problem of a centralized-based architecture is the server-side bottleneck issue. The system maintenance cost for avoiding such an issue can be dramatically expensive. This maintenance cost can be reduced by adopting a decentralized-based architecture instead. However, the lack of a total control over user transactions in a decentralized-based architecture limits the capability of the service on being able to deploy commercially. In this study, we propose to apply Blockchain in a decentralized-based VoD service to overcome such a limitation. A new cryptocurrency so-called VoDCoin and its architecture design are proposed. The feasibility of our design is confirmed by means of experimentation in our Blockchain development testbed. Experiment results and open research challenges toward the practical deployment of VoDCoin are discussed at the end of this study. |
