Abstract
A method for execution by a computing device includes, receiving, from a requesting device, a request for a data segment of a data object that is or is to be stored in storage units of a content delivery network. The method further includes determining whether the data segment is stored in a cache memory of the content delivery network or in the storage units. When stored in the cache memory, the method includes retrieving the cached data segment, and sending it to the requesting device. When stored in the storage units, the method includes, sending read requests regarding the data segment to the storage units, receiving, in response to the read requests, at least a decode threshold number of encoded data slices, decoding the at least the decode threshold number of encoded data slices to reproduce the data segment, and sending the data segment to the requesting device.
