Delivering video in a content delivery network
Abstract:
A server in a content delivery network (CDN) receives a request for a web page of a domain handled by an origin server. The server retrieves the web page and the web page references a video. The server retrieves a file that indicates a list of locations of the domain in which segments of the video are located. The server fetches at least an initial portion of the segments. The server receives a request for the video. The server transmits to the requester at least the initial portion of the segments. The server receives a subsequent request of a different portion of the segments. The server transmits a response to the requester that instructs the requester to transmit the request for the different portion of segments to a second server in the CDN.
