Abstract
In some embodiments, a system is provided, and computer-executable instructions cause the system to: receive, at an edge server of a content delivery network (CDN), a request for a first video and a request for a second video; determine that the first video is not cached and that the second video is cached; request the first video from the origin server and log a cache miss; obtain the first video from the origin server and send responsive to the request; send the second video responsive to the request and log a cache hit; obtain a metric indicative of the volume of cache misses, including for the first and second videos, across edge servers of the CDN; and determine, based on the metric, an amount by which to scale resources implementing the origin.
