OPTIMIZING CONTENT MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A system for monitoring performance associated with processing a request for at least one resource, the system comprising:
- at least one processing device operable to;
identify one or more service providers to be utilized in conjunction with processing a request for at least one resource, wherein the one or more service providers host content on behalf of a content provider;
for each identified service provider;
cause an initiation of a request for the at least one resource to the identified service provider; and
obtain performance data related to processing of the request using the identified service provider; and
dynamically determine a service provider to process a subsequent request for the same at least one resource at least in part based on the performance data corresponding to processing the same at least one resource using each identified service provider.

Abstract
A system and method for monitoring the performance associated with fulfilling resource requests and determining optimizations for improving such performance are provided. A processing device obtains and processes performance metric information associated with processing a request for an original resource and any embedded resource. The processing device uses the processed performance metric information to determine a CDN service provider for alternatively hosting at least a portion of the original resource and/or any embedded resources. In some embodiments, in making such a determination, the processing device assesses performance metric information collected and associated with subsequent resource requests for the original resource and any embedded resources using each of a variety of alternative CDN service providers. Aspects of systems and methods for generating recommendations associated with monitoring the operation and performance of CDN service providers with respect to specific resource requests are also provided.
