Abstract:
Network Service Providers (NSPs) are currently considering to deploy
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) within their networks. As a
consequence of this development, there is a need for interconnecting
these local CDNs. The necessary interfaces for inter-connecting CDNs
are currently being defined in the Content Delivery Networks
Interconnection (CDNi) WG. This document focusses on the Request
Routing Interface of CDNi, and more specifically on how the solutions
currently being defined in the Application Layer Traffic Optimization
(ALTO) WG can improve CDNi request routing. The overall intention
behind this document is to foster discussions (in the CDNi as well as
in the ALTO WG) regarding a) if, b) how, and c) under what conditions
ALTO can be useful to optimize CDNi request routing. As basis for
this discussion, this document provides concrete examples of how ALTO
can be integrated within CDNi request routing. The examples in this
document are based on the use cases and examples currently being
discussed in the CDNi WG.
