Methods, systems, and computer program products for implementing media content analysis, distribution, and re-allocation services
First Claim
1. A method for implementing media content analysis, distribution, and re-allocation across a network, comprising:
- configuring tiered storage locations for the media content based upon proximity of the storage locations to an Internet Protocol device;
analyzing factors that impact access to, and quality of, the media content provided over the network, the factors comprisingpopularity of the media content,costs of transporting the media content through the network,timing of demand for the media content, andcosts of storage space;
identifying a current storage location of the media content;
creating decision criteria and metrics for re-allocating selected media content to alternate storage locations in response to the analyzing, the alternate storage locations forming at least a portion of the tiered storage locations;
re-allocating the selected media content to at least one of the alternate storage locations in response to the analyzing; and
updating an inventory database to reflect the at least one of the alternate storage locations of the selected media content.

Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for implementing media content analysis, distribution, and re-allocation services across a network are provided. The method includes analyzing factors that impact access to, and quality of, the media content provided over the network. The method also includes identifying a current storage location of the media content, creating decision criteria and metrics for re-allocating selected media content to an alternate storage location in response to the analyzing, and re-allocating the selected media content to the alternate storage location. The method further includes updating an inventory database to reflect the alternate storage of the selected media content.
