WEIGHTED INGEST POLICY MANAGEMENT IN A CONTENT DISTRIBUTION NETWORK |
摘要 |
An ingestion controller, system, and method for managing ingestion of electronic content in a Content Distribution Network (CDN) (11). The content is received from one or more content sources (CSs) (12-15) through an inbound content pipe (19) having a maximum bandwidth capacity. A database stores bandwidth weightings assigned to each CS by a network Policy Management System (PMS) (46). The bandwidth weighting assigned to each CS corresponds to a fraction of the maximum bandwidth capacity of the inbound content pipe. An input buffer (41) receives the content from the CSs in one or more input buffer queues (51-54) associated with the CSs. A content retrieval mechanism retrieves the content from the input queues at an upload rate for each CS based at least on each CS's assigned bandwidth weighting, thereby causing a flow control mechanism (55) to control the upload bitrate of each CS in proportion to the bandwidth weightings. |
