Abstract
Current Content Distribution Networks (CDN) deployment requires heavy infrastructure investment since a large number of servers have to be deployed over a wide area. This paper proposes a new paradigm where future CDNs are to be deployed over a leased server and network infrastructure. While this paradigm shift introduces a new dimension of flexibility, it requires the resource provisioning and object placement problems to be jointly considered. This paper formulates this new optimization problem, and presents solution to it based on Lagrangian relaxation and greedy heuristics.
