A digital content recording network controller device determines a first content of a set of content to be more likely to be requested by a user of a content access device than a second content of the set of content based on monitored behavior of the user. The device stores the first content in a first storage device of a tiered group of storage devices and stores the second content in a second storage device of the tiered group of storage devices wherein the content access device is located closer to the first storage device than the second storage device. This balances storage load with accessibility, resulting in a faster responding system that does not require as much storage.

Tiered digital content recording

An electronic device (such as an origin server) in a content delivery system performs intelligent content server handling of client receipt disruptions. The electronic device may receive requests for segments of a content asset submitted using a manifest that has segment request addresses with session identifiers, estimate a session interruption using the requests and the session identifiers, and handle the session interruption. The electronic device may handle the session interruption by scheduling a recording of the content asset, reallocating network resources, and so on. In some examples, the electronic device may also provide the manifest.
