Method and system for achieving improved quality of service (QoS) for content delivery in a SDN controller based communication network

Abstract:

In one embodiment, an application server to achieve improved quality of service (QoS) for content delivery in a communication network is disclosed. The application server receives a request from a client device to deliver content to the client device. The application server determines a relative priority of each of a plurality of content delivery servers in the communication network based on at least one of one or more parameters and a configuration file. The application server identifies at least one content delivery server from the plurality of content delivery servers based on relative priority. The application server identifies a shortest path for the content delivery between the identified at least one content delivery server and the client device based on one or more pre-defined rules. The application server further transmits the content from the identified at least one content delivery server to the client device via the identified shortest path.
