Subject: RE: [CDNi] Long Tail personalized content delivery over CDN Interconnections

Hi Francois,

Please find updated draft attached. For convenience, I have described inline the Metadata interface requirements and Request routing interface changes.

Metadata interface requirement

The CDNI Metadata Distribution interface shall provide indication by the downstream CDN (dCDN) to the upstream CDN (uCDN) whether the content should be cached or not cached in the dCDN. This information should be on a per URL basis. The default behavior would be to cache the content in the dCDN

Referring to the example in Fig. 2, Section 3 [I-D.ietf-cdni-framework]; it shows Operator A as the uCDN and Operator B as the dCDN, where the former has a relationship with a content provider and the latter being the best CDN to deliver content to the end-user. Referring to the HTTP example in Fig. 3, Section 3.2 [I-D.ietf-cdni-framework];

Request routing interface changes

Step 2: A Request Router for Operator A processes the HTTP request. The HTTP URL metadata is looked up in a metadata database. For long tail personalized content, the metadata database lookup result indicates that the content should not be cached by the dCDN. The Request Router for Operator A recognizes that the end-user is best served by the uCDN without any caching the in dCDN and returns a 302 redirect message with the URL of Operator A delivery node. The end-user proceeds to retrieve the data from Operator A delivery node.

Thanks, ramki

Hi Kevin,

Thanks a lot for your comments. Please see response below

Kevin:
>>Wrt CDNI, what is it that draft-krishnan-cdni-long-tail-00 is proposing?
>>The CDNI requirements (specifically META-14) already discuss distribution control policies, including preventing delegation.  Beyond the ability to >>prevent delegation, are you proposing that CDNs be required to implement analytics-based delegation policies?  That seems somewhat beyond our scope.

Ramki:
The CDNi req META-14 is about the selection of dCDN, but what long tail draft is proposing is the selection of uCDN

the selection of uCDN by whom?

based on the content attribute, i.e. whether the content is long tail personalized or not. The long tail draft also brings in the concept of no caching in the uCDN

The intra-CDN decision of the uCDN to cache or not is generally outside the scope of CDNI. We are not disagreeing that the uCDN may elect to not cache some content (and in that case to not redirect to a dCDN), but this does not seem directly related to CDNI.

and dCDN for certain types of content based on the content attribute, for e.g. long tail personalized content. The impacts of this on CDNi request routing is also explained.

Can you summarize again very briefly the interaction you see between the desire to not cache some content and the CDNI interfaces? (when discussing Request Routing, please separate the impact you see on the Request Routing/Redirection interface vs Request Routing/Footprint & Cap Interface).

Thanks

Thanks, ramki
