「串流代理伺服器平台」之設計與實做 Design and Implementation of a Streaming Proxy Server Platform for Internet Video Streaming Outline Background Design goals Segment-based Caching Schemes Architecture of Streaming Proxy Server (SPS) Experimental Results Conclusion Background Internet video streaming: Challenges: Significant WAN delay jitter and unstable throughput. Current implementation: No proxy, large client buffering/ long initial delay. Proxy-assisted video streaming Segment-based caching Reducing initial delay Reducing WAN traffic by locally sharing videos. Background (Contd.) Design Goals Streaming Proxy Server (SPS) Web compatible: user transparent (web server, media player, Http1.1). Configurable: provide generic modules which can be configured into different segment-based caching schemes. LAN-stream/WAN-segment hybrid transmission control: provide stable stream quality. Two-year project: First year: unicast-based approach (94). Second year: unicast/multicast hybrid approach (95). Segment-based Caching Two schemes were implemented. Prefix Caching： Video prefix is cached in SPS. Upon request, SPS first sends video prefix to clients. SPS then retrieves video suffix from the server. Reducing initial waiting time. Suffix-Window caching (proposed by us)： SPS further dynamically caches a window of video suffix for each video stream. Other clients requesting the same video will first check the suffix-window segments available in SPS before asking the video suffix from the server. Video sharing - reduce WAN traffic. System Architecture of SPS Three modules: Storage management subsystem (SMS), Caching policy subsystem (CPS), flow control subsystem (FCS). System Architecture- SMS Performance monitoring interface. System configuration interface. HTTP Connection management. Cache resource management. System Architecture- CPS Defining configuration parameters. Defining caching policy.
