Re: Edge (cache) Servers said by cptmiles:I operate a small ISP and would love to be able to put a Google, Netflix, Hulu, and anything else type of server in my CO to cut down on my backbone costs.
I'm not sure how big you have to be before CDNs will want to host gear at your site it couldn't hurt to ask.
Typically someone like Akami provides you with the gear. You provide rack space, power and pipe. Their gear caches content and significantly reduces your overall bandwidth utilization and performance of cached content. |
