Abstract

This work addresses the multi-objective resource provisioning problem for building cloud-based CDNs. The optimization objectives are the minimization of VM, network and storage cost, and the maximization of the QoS for the end-user. A brokering model is proposed such that a single cloud-based CDN is able to host multiple content providers applying a resource sharing strategy. Following this model, an offline multiobjective evolutionary approach is applied to optimize resource provisioning while a greedy heuristic is proposed for addressing online routing of content. Experimental results indicate the proposed approach may reduce total costs by up to 10.6% while maintaining high QoS values.
