HOW GEO-DISPERSED OBJECT-BASED STORAGE PROVIDES METADATA DRIVEN INTELLIGENCE TO ENABLE MORE ROBUST CONTENT DELIVERY NETWORKS

摘要

The world of broadcasting is changingrapidly to accommodate new viewer habits and ContentDelivery Networks are a key part of this new model.Advanced technologies are required to keep up with theincreasing demand across heterogeneous CDN networks.This discussion will offer a comprehensive look at howgeo-dispersed object-based storage provides metadatadriven intelligence to enable more robust CDNs. Newtechnologies in object storage that leverage intelligentmetadata for aware content placement from the origin tothe edge, and that make use of subscriber analytics andsoftware-defined networking, can provide the futurearchitecture to help content delivery networks becomeautonomic, self-adapting and self-healing. HeterogeneousContent Delivery Cloud Networks (CDCN) provides thebasis for adapting to increasing Over the Top (OTT)subscriber driven media consumption.
