摘要： A content delivery network (CDN) edge server is provisioned to provide last mile acceleration of content to requesting end users. The CDN edge server fetches, compresses and caches content obtained from a content provider origin server, and serves that content in compressed form in response to receipt of an end user request for that content. It also provides “on-the-fly” compression of otherwise uncompressed content as such content is retrieved from cache and is delivered in response to receipt of an end user request for such content. A preferred compression routine is gzip, as most end user browsers support the capability to decompress files that are received in this format. The compression functionality preferably is enabled on the edge server using customer-specific metadata tags.

摘要翻译： 提供内容传送网络（CDN）边缘服务器以向请求的最终用户提供最后一英里的内容加速。 CDN边缘服务器从内容提供商原始服务器获取，压缩和缓存从内容提供者原始服务器获得的内容，并且响应于该内容的最终用户请求的接收而以压缩形式提供该内容。 它还提供其他未压缩内容的“即时”压缩，因为这些内容是从高速缓存中检索的，并且响应于接收到这样的内容的最终用户请求被递送。 优选的压缩例程是gzip，因为大多数最终用户浏览器支持解压缩以此格式接收的文件的功能。 压缩功能优选地在边缘服务器上使用客户特定的元数据标签来启用。
