Abstract:
A method, a content management module (110), a computer program (503) and a carrier (505) for managing content in a content distribution network (100) are disclosed. The content distribution network (100) comprises a plurality of caches (140), a content serving node (120), a client device (130). The content management module (110) obtains an indication that the content is to be delivered, in an upcoming time period, to the client device (130). The content management module (110) obtains a transport capability parameter relating to transport capability, in a past time period, from the plurality of caches (140) to an output means (131). The content management module (110) predicts, for said each cache, a respective predicted transport capability based on the respective set of parameters. The content management module (110) segments the content into a plurality of segments based on the respective predicted transport capability. The content management module (110) selects at least one respective cache (141-144) based on the respective predicted transport capabilities. The content management module (110) provides a respective command to the content serving node (120). The respective command instructs the content serving node (120) to feed said each segment to the selected at least one respective cache.
