Abstract

Videos and other multimedia contents become increasing popular among users of the Internet nowadays. With the improvement of underlying infrastructure of the Internet, users are allowed to enjoy video contents with much higher quality than last decade. Content delivery networks (CDNs) are a type of content hosting solution that widely used across the Internet. Content providers offload the task of content hosting to CDN providers and redirect users’ requests to CDNs. Video contents, especially high quality videos at real-time has occupying a major part of the Internet traffic. It is challenging to handle such workloads even for a large- scale CDN. Load balancing algorithms are critical to address this issue. However, traditional load balancing algorithms such as round-robin and randomization are unaware of user side requirements. Therefore, it is not uncommon that requests for high-quality videos at real-time are not satisfied. In this paper, we try to fulfill such requests by integrating software-defined networking technology with CDN infrastructure. We also propose revised load balancing algorithms and develop simulations to verify our approaches. The results show that the proposed algorithms achieve much higher user satisfaction in bandwidth-idle environments.
