Published Documents
SVTA2028: Open Caching Configuration Interface: Part 1
This is the first part in a set of documents that specifies the motivational drivers, use cases, and standards for a configuration interface to facilitate interoperability within the content delivery network (CDN) and open caching ecosystems. This document set presents a layered architecture that extends the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) CDN Interconnect (CDNi) metadata model and adds publishing layer Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to provide configuration management capabilities required by the CDN and open caching industries.
SVTA2029: Open Caching Configuration Interface: Part 2 – Extensions to the CDNi Metadata Object Model
This is part two in a set of documents that specifies the motivational drivers, use cases, and standards for a configuration interface to facilitate interoperability within the content delivery network (CDN) and open caching ecosystem. This document presents the context and requirements for extending the Content Delivery Network Interconnection (CDNi) metadata model, as well as specific extensions that will fulfill those requirements. This document will provide all the necessary information for an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) memo describing the Streaming Video Alliance (SVA) metadata interface requirements beyond those stated in RFC-7337 (Content Distribution Network Interconnection Requirements), along with requested extensions to RFC-8006 (Content Delivery Network Interconnection Metadata).
SVTA2030: Open Caching Configuration Interface: Part 3 – Publishing Layer APIs
This is part three in a set of documents that specifies the motivations, use cases, and standards for a configuration interface to facilitate interoperability within the content delivery network (CDN) and open caching ecosystems. In this document, the requirements for a configuration publishing layer are presented, along with APIs that facilitate the publishing of CDNi metadata objects within the CDN and open caching ecosystems.
Goals and Objectives
- To define an API specification that provides for the deployment and management of cache configurations across multiple CDN providers and Open Caching Nodes.
Project Scope
- A list of supported cache configuration features
- Description of a programmatic method by which to deploy configurations to different caching systems
- Programmatic methods for error detection and error correction in configuration deployment
- A data structure and recommended container for configuration representation
- Any specific programming languages that should be used to extract metrics
- Any support for configuration features not specifically listed and addressed by methods within the API
