An Effective Failure Recovery Mechanism with Pipeline Computing in Clustered-Based VOD Servers
نویسندگان
چکیده
For the actual Video-On-Demand (VOD) service environment, we implement a cluster-based VOD server composed of general PCs and adopt the parallel processing for MPEG movies. For the implemented VOD server, a video block recovery mechanism is designed on the RAID-3 and the RAID-4 algorithms. However, without considering the architecture of cluster-based VOD server, the application of these basic RAID techniques causes the performance bottleneck of the internal network for recovery. To solve these problems, the new failure recovery mechanism based on the pipeline computing concept is proposed. The proposed method distributes the network traffics invoked by recovery operations and utilizes the available CPU computing power of cluster

A request distribution method for clustered VOD servers considering buffer sharing effects
The clustering of multiple video servers is a popular architecture for huge VOD systems. In a clustered VOD system, user requests are distributed among the video servers by the dispatcher. Each video server consists of independent disks and a local buffer memory. The buffer mechanism is recognized helpful to the improvement of the disk performance. However, its effects have not been effectively...
متن کاملApplying Linux High-Availability and Load Balancing Servers for Video-on-Demand (VOD) Systems
In this research paper, we integrate and implement High-Availability (HA) and Load-Balancing technologies to clusters of workstations, increasing both the availability and scalability of services and resources in these systems. The cluster of workstations is commonly built and used as web-based VOD servers. Thus, this paper presents the hardware and software configurations of cluster systems wo...
متن کاملOptimal Video Replication and Placement on a Cluster of Video-on-Demand Servers
A cost-effective approach to building up scalable Videoon-Demand (VoD) servers is to couple a number of VoD servers together in a cluster. In this article, we study a crucial video replication and placement problem in a distributed storage VoD cluster for high quality and high availability services. We formulate it as a combinatorial optimization problem with objectives of maximizing the encodi...
متن کاملDesign of Clustered Streaming Servers to Balance the Network Load for VoD Applications
Ideally, video and audio are streamed across the Internet from the server to the client in response to a client request for a Web page containing embedded videos. The client plays the incoming multimedia stream in real time as the data is received. Quite a few video streamers are starting to appear and many pseudo-streaming technologies and other potential solutions are also in the pipeline. Ge...
متن کاملAn Effective Task Scheduling Framework for Cloud Computing using NSGA-II
Cloud computing is a model for convenient on-demand user’s access to changeable and configurable computing resources such as networks, servers, storage, applications, and services with minimal management of resources and service provider interaction. Task scheduling is regarded as a fundamental issue in cloud computing which aims at distributing the load on the different resources of a distribu...
