Content-centric networking is one solution of an information-centric networking thought. The invention discloses a centralized caching decision strategy in the content-centric networking. Under the architecture of the content-centric networking, researches of basic functions, such as data naming, content forwarding and intranet caching of information-centric networking, are realized by utilizing the existing framework adopting a SDN; the centralized caching decision strategy is provided; a centralized controller is placed in the content-centric networking; the controller generates one caching list for each node by collecting all node request information, and deterministically guides each node to cache contents; therefore, the transmission flow in the network is minimized; and the user request delay is reduced.
