Abstract

A proxy system is provided to receive an HTTP request for content accessible over the Internet comprising: cache storage; and a computer system configured to implement, a CDN proxy module and an edge forward proxy module each having access to the cache storage to cache and to retrieve content; and a selector to select either the CDN proxy module or the edge forward proxy module depending upon contents of a header of the HTTP request received from the user device; an HTTP client to forward the request from the CDN proxy or from the edge forward proxy over the Internet to a server to serve the requested content.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. Application No. 13 / 102,038, filed May 5, 2011 and entitled System Combining a CDN Reverse Proxy Server and a Transparent Proxy Server and Related Method, which is incorporated by reference here. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to distributed computing platforms and to the distribution of content over the Internet. Background technique [0004] A content delivery network (CDN) consists of a dedicated collection of servers located across the Internet. Three main entities participate in CDNs: content providers, CDN providers, and end users. Content providers grant Uniform Resource Locators (URL) namespaces for web objects to be distributed. The content provider's origin server hosts these objects. A CDN provider provides content providers with the infrastructure (eg, a network of proxy servers) to enable timely and relia...
