Description
The present invention relates to a content distribution apparatus and method using peer to peer and a recording medium on which a program for implementing the same is recorded.
In a client-server system, a client requests content from a server, and the server provides the requested content to the client.
At this time, the server should respond to requests from a plurality of clients. Therefore, if the number of clients exceeds a certain number, the server is subjected to heavy load. In addition, when the server is subjected to a heavy load, there is a problem in that the response speed is low because the bandwidth allocated to provide content to one client is small.
As part of efforts to reduce the heavy load on the server, a cache scheme and a CDN scheme have been proposed.
There are two types of caching methods: forward proxy and reverse proxy, and the cache server provides the requested content. However, if the cache server is located on the client side, the server operator cannot manage the cache server. If the cache server is located on the server side, the server load can be controlled, but the traffic on the Internet can be reduced. There was a problem that could not be. In order to solve this problem, a CDN has been proposed. CDN operators distribute cache servers under multiple Internet Data Centers (IDCs) or Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and lend cache servers to server operators. The CDN may provide the content from the cache server closest to the client when there is a request for the content from the client. However, in order to construct a CDN, it is expensive to prepare a large number of computers having a capacity equivalent to a server, and even though the functions of the server are replaced by several computers, there is a problem that the number of servers in charge of the CDN function is limited. Therefore, there is a problem that can not provide CDN service in some areas.
