Tile: A Model for Open Pluggable Edge Services
Abstract:
Content Networks, also known as Content Distribution Networks or
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), are of increasing importance to
the overall architecture of the web. Both content providers and
content consumers are increasingly looking for additional services
beyond basic content networking. In particular, they are interested
in services that operate on and provide a value-add to the content
to be delivered from a content network. This document introduces
Open Pluggable Edge Services (OPES), an infrastructure for adding
such value added service to a content network. A common vocabulary
helps the process of discussing such an edge services
infrastructure. This document introduces elements for such a common
vocabulary.
