Abstract:
Many Internet applications are used to access resources such as
pieces of information or server processes that are available in
several equivalent replicas on different hosts. This includes, but
is not limited to, peer-to-peer file sharing applications. The goal
of Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) is to provide
guidance to applications that have to select one or several hosts
from a set of candidates, which are able to provide a desired
resource. This memo discusses deployment related issues of ALTO. It
addresses different use cases of ALTO such as peer-to-peer file
sharing and CDNs and presents corresponding examples. The document
also includes recommendations for network administrators and
application designers planning to deploy ALTO, such recommendations
how to generate ALTO map information.
