Anycast Aware Transport for Content Distribution Networks

摘要

A system for providing content includes a plurality of content delivery servers and a routing control module. Each of the content delivery servers is configured to receive a first request from a client system sent to an anycast IP address for the content, and to provide a first portion of the content to the client system. Each of the content delivery servers is further configured to receive a second request from the client system sent to the anycast IP address for a second portion of the content, and to provide the second portion of the content to the client system. The routing control module is configured to modify the routing of the anycast address from a first content delivery server to a second content delivery server.
