Abstract

Due to an increase in content providers providing large-capacity contents, most of the traffic flowing into the Internet is occupied by multimedia contents such as videos, images, music, and so on. In content distribution on the Internet, content delivery networks (CDNs) that can guarantee the load distribution and communication quality of the server and the network entity is used around the world. With current CDN technologies, when the user establishes a connection with the distribution server, it is difficult to change both the server and the path between the user and the server. Therefore, when dealing with long duration communication in CDNs, conventional path control and distribution server selection related to CDNs may not be able to respond flexibly to changes in communication quality after the communication starts. In this paper, we propose the path and server switching scheme based on the estimated available throughput of each path to improve the performance of communication in CDNs. Furthermore, we show that our proposed method can provide high throughput performance compared with the existing method by using network simulations.
