Zusammenfassung:A Content Delivery Network (CDN) service provider is described that monitors historical data of a geographic distribution of requests and makes source relocation recommendations based on the historical data. Based on a selected recommendation, the CDN service provider can migrate the source of content from a first geographical region to a second geographical region closer to where the requests are generated. As a result, a round-trip time (RTT) for requests is reduced, even for first time requests.
