Popis: | We propose a complete framework targeting operator-driven content caching that can be equally applied to both ISP-operated Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) and future Information-Centric Networks (ICNs). In contrast to previous proposals in this area, our solution leverages operators’ control on cache placement and content routing, managing to considerably reduce network operating costs by minimizing the amount of transit traffic and balancing load among available network resources. In addition, our solution provides two key advantages over previous proposals. First, it allows for a simple computation of the optimal cache placement. Second, it provides knobs for operators to fine-tune performance. We validate our design through both analytical modeling and trace-driven simulations and show that our proposed solution achieves on average twice as many cache hits in comparison to previously proposed techniques, without increasing delivery latency. In addition, we show that the proposed framework achieves 19-33% better load balancing across links and caching nodes, being also robust to traffic spikes. |
