Abstract
In this paper, we present a novel small-world method for request routing in CDNs. CDNs have multiple servers carry the same content. Request routing system is used to choose a proper replica server that has the requested content and route the incoming request to that sever. To present the proper strategies on choosing the replica server, we use small-world distributed hash tables to create the new replica server and relax the hot spots in replica servers. According to the experiment results, the trade-off between the scalability and robustness gained from small-world distributed hash tables reduce the average query delay.
