Abstract :
One of the hot topics in the networking industry is content delivery networking. Unfortunately, if you ask five people for a definition of a content delivery network (CDN), you will probably get five different answers. We hope to clear up some of the confusion surrounding CDNs, discuss how typical enterprise and service provider networks are likely to use them, and describe the business drivers that will fuel their growth in the coming years
