Abstract
A device receives a user election of participation in a distributed cache service, and receives user selection of one or more devices, that are each associated with the user, to register with the distributed cache service as participant nodes. The device determines an amount of available storage offered to the cache service for each of the one or more participant nodes, and determines an available bandwidth of a respective network connection associated with each of the one or more participant nodes. The device admits selected devices of the one or more participant nodes into the distributed cache service based on the available storage and the available bandwidth, and interleaves storage of multiple chunks of content across a subset of the participant nodes admitted into the distributed cache service. The device enables client access to the multiple chunks of content interleaved across the subset of the participant nodes.
