A Practical Architecture for an Anycast CDN
2011
ACM Transactions on the Web
In this article we re-evaluate IP Anycast for CDNs by proposing a load-aware IP Anycast CDN architecture. ...
However, while briefly considered as an enabler for content delivery networks (CDNs) when they first emerged, IP Anycast was deemed infeasible in that environment. ...
Furthermore, even A Practical Architecture for an Anycast CDN 17:11 for the overloaded servers, we try to retain the current mappings as much as possible. ...

Anycast-aware transport for content delivery networks
2009
Proceedings of the 18th international conference on World wide web - WWW '09
However, because routing changes can result in a change of the endpoint that terminates the TCP session, TCP session disruption remains a concern for anycast CDNs, especially for large file downloads. ...
Anycast-based content delivery networks (CDNs) have many properties that make them ideal for the large scale distribution of content on the Internet. ...
IP anycast is a promising alternative request distribution mechanism; it was initially considered for CDNs and dismissed, but recently re-emerged as a practical approach for single-network CDNs [6] . ...

Analyzing the Performance of an Anycast CDN
2015
Proceedings of the 2015 ACM Conference on Internet Measurement Conference - IMC '15
Whereas DNS-based redirection requires a complex global traffic manager, anycast depends on BGP to direct a client to a CDN front-end. ...
We examine the performance implications of using anycast in a global, latency-sensitive, CDN. ...

A First Look at Anycast CDN Traffic
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Anycast routing is an IP solution that allows packets to be routed to the topologically nearest server. ...
For instance, since anycast depends on the routing, the question is how stable are the paths toward the nearest server. ...
This testifies that today anycast is not anymore used for UDP services only, and A-CDNs are a reality. ...

Distributed Load Management Algorithms in Anycast-based CDNs
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
A popular architecture for modern Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) for geo-replicated services consists of multiple layers of proxy nodes for service and co-located DNS-servers for load-balancing among ...
In the second half of the paper, we consider an alternative greedy load-management heuristic, currently in production in a major commercial CDN. ...
In this architecture, the proxies are logically arranged in layers of anycast rings, with each layer having a distinct Anycast IP-address. See Figure 3 for an example. ...

A Walk through Content Delivery Networks
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper focuses on the main research areas in the field of CDN, pointing out the motivations, and analyzing the existing strategies for replica placement and management, server measurement, best fit ...
Content Delivery Networks (CDN) aim at overcoming the inherent limitations of the Internet. ...
The base principle is that a group of servers providing the same service can be addressed using an anycast name and an anycast address [38, 14] . ...

CDN: Content Distribution Network
[article]
2004
arXiv
pre-print
An example of CDN is described to show how a real commercial CDN operates. ...
After this, we present a scheme that provides fast service location for peer-to-peer systems, a special type of CDN with no infrastructure support. We conclude with a brief projection about CDN. ...
Thereby, they are very difficult to apply in practice [RGE01] and may not be suitable for the real CDN systems. ...

Latency-Based Anycast Geolocation: Algorithms, Software, and Data Sets
2016
IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
With this paper, we not only propose and thoroughly validate a protocol-agnostic technique for anycast replicas discovery and geolocation, but also provide the community with open source software and datasets ...
The algorithm features an iterative workflow, pipelining enumeration (an optimization problem using latency as input) and geolocalization (a classification problem using side channel information such as ...
Indeed, given that no a priori information on the service running on an anycast host can be assumed, soliciting response on specific transport layer ports (e.g., UDP 53 for DNS or TCP 80 for CDN) would ...

Global-Scale Anycast Network Management with Verfploeter
2020
NOMS 2020 - 2020 IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium
Yet managing an anycast network is far from simple. Earlier work studying a DDoS attack on the DNS root system, for example, shows that even highly distributed anycast networks can be overwhelmed. ...
These case studies show that Verfploeter is highly suitable for such a large-scale operation and gives operators vital insights that allow them to improve network management practices of their anycast ...
These finds strengthen the case for a system that is able to perform fast and precise measurements of anycast catchments. Past work has also focused specifically on anycast performance in CDNs. ...

QoS Dynamic Routing in Content Delivery Networks
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Therefore, we analyze in this paper a network processing two kinds of demands: content demands to CDN servers and standard unicast demands. ...
Since MPLS defines effective mechanism for traffic engineering, we assume that the CDN is located in MPLS network. ...
We call such a network CDN-enabled MPLS network. However, also other architectures can be used for provision of QoS and TE capabilities in CDN. For more details refer to [4] , [18] . ...
