INFORMATION CENTRIC NETWORK FOR CONTENT DATA NETWORKS

Abstract:

System and techniques for information centric network (ICN) implemented content data networks (CDNs) are described herein. A directive to initiate a cache operation for content may be received at a gateway of an ICN. An interest packet may be constructed based on the directive. The interest packet may be transmitted on the ICN and a response to the interest packet received. Here, the response has a payload that corresponds to the content. The payload then may be cached at a local repository of the gateway.
