End-to-end Acceleration Of Dynamic Content
A method of accelerating dynamic content between Points of Presence (POPs) and front-loading latency bottlenecks in a Content Delivery Network (CDN) may include receiving, at a first POP, a content request from a user device, where content responsive to the content request includes a first content portion that is not stored in the first POP. The method may also include determining that the first content portion is available through a second POP. The method may additionally include transmitting the first content portion through a persistent connection mesh from the second POP to the first POP, wherein the persistent connection mesh is maintained between the first POP and the second POP prior to the request for content being received by the first POP. The method may further include delivering the content responsive to the content request to the user device.

- 1. A system for accelerating content between Points of Presence (POPs) in a Content Delivery Network (CDN), comprising:
a first POP in the CDN configured to receive a content request from a user device; a second POP in the CDN; and a persistent connection mesh between the first POP and the second POP, wherein:
the persistent connection mesh is maintained between the first POP and the second POP prior to the content request being received by the first POP; and
a content portion is transmitted through the persistent connection mesh from the second POP to the first POP.
- 9. A system for accelerating uncached content between Points of Presence (POPs) in a Content Delivery Network (CDN), comprising:
a first POP in the CDN configured to receive a content request from a user device, wherein: a second POP in the CDN; and a connection between the first POP and the second POP, wherein:
the connection is available between the first POP and the second POP prior to the content request being received by the first POP; and
a content portion is transmitted through the connection from the second POP to the first POP in response to the content request.
- 17. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) for accelerating content, comprising:
an origin server communicating with a plurality of origin addresses; and a Point of Presence (POP) maintaining a connection with the origin server,
wherein the POP is configured to receive a content request from a user device while the connection is maintained with at least a portion of the content request resulting in a cache miss, and
wherein the POP is configured to request the portion of the content request resulting in the cache miss from the origin server using the connection.
