Distributed Internet caching via multiple node caching management. Caching decisions and management are performed based on information corresponding to more than one caching node device (sometimes referred to as a distributed caching node device, distributed Internet caching node device, and/or DCN) within a communication system. The communication system may be composed of one type or multiple types of communication networks that are communicatively coupled to communicate there between, and they may be composed of any one or combination types of communication links therein [wired, wireless, optical, satellite, etc.]). In some instances, more than one of these DCNs operate cooperatively to make caching decisions and direct management of content to be stored among the more than one DCNs. In an alternative embodiment, a managing DCN is operative to make caching decisions and direct management of content within more than one DCNs of a communication system.
