Introduction - This document defines objects needed for Open Caching request - routing. For that purpose it extends CDNI metadata [RFC8006] and - CDNI Footprint and Capabilities [RFC8008]. For consistency, this - document follows the CDNI notation of uCDN (the commercial CDN) and - dCDN (the ISP caching layer). + The Open Caching working group of the Streaming Video Alliance (SVA) + is focused on the delegation of video delivery requests from + commercial CDNs to a caching layer at the Internet Service Provider's + (ISP) network. Open Caching is a specific use case of CDNI where the + commercial CDN is the upstream CDN (uCDN) and the ISP caching layer + is the downstream CDN (dCDN). This document defines and registers + CDNI generic metadata object [RFC8006] and CDNI Footprint and + Capabilities object [RFC8008] that are required for Open Caching + request routing. For consistency with other CDNI documents this + document follows the CDNI convention of uCDN (upstream CDN) and dCDN + (downstream CDN) to represent the commerical CDN and ISP caching + layer respectively. This document also registers CDNI Payload Types [RFC7736] for the defined objects: o Redirect Target Capability (for dCDN advertising redirect target address) o Fallback Target Metadata (for uCDN configuring fallback target address) 1.1.

Redirect Target Capability + + Iterative request redirection is defined in Section 1.1 of [RFC7336] + and elaborated by examples in Sections 3.2 and 3.4 of [RFC7336]. A + Redirection Target (RT) is defined in Section 2 of [RFC7975] for + Recursive Request Redirection as: + + "The endpoint to which the User Agent is redirected. In CDNI, a + RT may point to a number of different components, some examples + include a surrogate in the same CDN as the request router, a + request router in a dCDN, or a surrogate in a dCDN". + + In this document we adopt the same defintion of the RT for the + Iterative Request Redirect use case. This use case requires the + provisioning of the RT address to be used by the uCDN in order to + redirect to the dCDN. RT addresses can vary between different + footprints, for example, between different regions, and they may also + change over time, for example as a result of network problems. Given + this variable and dynamic nature of the redirect target address, it + may not be suitable to advertise it during bootstrap. A more dynamic + and footprint oriented interface is required. Section 4.3 of + [RFC7336] suggests that it could be one of the roles of the FCI + [RFC8008].

Use cases o Footprint: The dCDN may want to have a different target per footprint. Note that a dCDN may spread across multiple geographies. This makes it easier to route client requests to a nearby request router.
