Method, apparatus and system for determining content acquisition path and processing request
First Claim
1. A method for determining a content acquisition path, comprising:
- receiving, by a first network node, a request from a user, wherein the request is used for requesting an original content provider to provide a content, and the request carries a name of the content, a network address of the original content provider and a network address of the user;
calculating a content acquisition path according to a cache hit rate of a network node on a shortest path when calculating the shortest path; and
sending the request to a next network node according to the content acquisition path.

Abstract
The present disclosure provide a method for determining a content acquisition path, a method for processing a content request and a corresponding apparatus and system. The method for determining the content acquisition path includes: receiving a request from a user, where the request is used for requesting an original content provider to provide a content, and the request carries a name of the content, a network address of the original content provider and a network address of the user; calculating at least two forwarding paths to the original content provider, and determining a content acquisition path according to link cost on each forwarding path and a cache hit rate of a network node on each forwarding path to the content; and sending the request to a next network node according to the content acquisition path, for enabling the next network node to forward or respond to the request.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium for determining a content acquisition path, the non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions thereon, the instructions when executed facilitating performance of the following:
-
receiving, by a first network node, a request from a user, wherein the request is used for requesting an original content provider to provide a content, and the request carries a name of the content, a network address of the original content provider and a network address of the user; calculating, by the first network node, the content acquisition path according to a cache hit rate of a network node on a shortest path when calculating the shortest path; and sending, by the network node, the request to a next network node according to the content acquisition path, for enabling the next network node to forward or respond to the request.
