Problems solved by technology

However, this solution cannot reuse equipment, so the investment is high and the address resources occupied are also large.
Moreover, because the DNS method and the application layer redirection method need to interpret domain names and URLs to different GSLB servers according to different services, customers of the same CDN network need to apply for different domain names for different services, otherwise different business processes will can not achieve
in addition, Figure 5 The combination of the DNS method and the application layer redirection method has not been realized at all, and the shortcomings of the two methods still cannot be solved

Abstract

The invention is a content distribution network system, comprising a content distribution system based on domain name service (DNS) provided with a local service load balancer (GSLB) based on DNS and an application layer reoriented content distribution network system provided with an application reoriented GSLB, characterized in: a exchange device is provided between the DNS-based GSLB and the application reoriented GSLB, which is coupled to a client, receives DNS domain name resolution request from the client or content access request with content uniform resource locator, and forwards the request to the DNS-based GSLB and the application reoriented GSLB according to the service type of the request. The invention also provides a related method. The invention realizes the integration of DNS-based CDN network and application layer reoriented CDN network.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a content distribution network (CDN) service in the Internet, in particular to a content distribution network system and method adapting to multi-service integration. Background technique [0002] The full name of CDN is Content Delivery Network, that is, content distribution network. CDN publishes content to the "edge" of the network closest to the user by superimposing a new network architecture on the existing Internet (i.e. figure 1 , SLB-service load balancer in 2), if there is no CDN, all users must visit the content provider if they want to see the content of the content provider (16), causing congestion to the content provider and worsening network performance. In order to solve network congestion, a CDN is superimposed on the existing Internet, as shown in Figure 2, that is, the content provider copies its content to each SLB (Service Load Balancer) (121a-c), so that users do not have to be crowded The content provi...
