摘要

The present disclosure relates to a proxy server device, an information processing method, a program, a terminal device, and a content supply system that can enhance the response performance with respect to requests from a reception side by optimizing caching by a proxy server. A proxy-server device according to the present disclosure includes: a monitoring portion that monitors a request for acquisition of a metafile containing information that a terminal device needs to receive a stream of content, the request being transmitted by the terminal device to a content supply device that delivers the content over a network in accordance with adaptive streaming technology; an analysis portion that analyzes the monitored request for acquisition of the metafile; and a database portion that accumulates an analysis result of the analysis portion. The present disclosure can be applied to a system that performs streaming delivery of content.
