Abstract

A number of solutions were advanced for problems of delays and overcrowdings of networks such as caches and proxies. The purpose of caches and proxies was to bring information closer to the users by serving user requests as if there were originating servers. Later, other challenges evolved as a consequence of caches and proxies for the Internet content distribution and services. Web caches are situated between Web servers (or originating servers) and clients in order to fulfils HTTP propagated requests instead of the servers. The distinct features of Web caches is storage of copies of objected requested lately which are used quickly fulfils the requests without the need to transfer object from the distant original server. Though, caches can be classified into browser cache, client-side cache and server-side cache. Nowadays, several CDNs (such as Akamai and DigitalIsland) are faced with imminent storage congestion and management. This paper offered best media access controls architecture for the CDNs for improved quality of service, integrity and content sharing.
