Abstract
In an embodiment, application delivery to end-user devices may be handled by a combination of an application device and a distributed set of split edge devices located closer to the end-user device within a network. The split edge devices are instructed by the application device about how to manage traffic to and from the end-user devices. The application device determines whether content is stored to content cache of a split edge device. The application device, when the content is stored to the split edge device, refrains from sending the content and instead sends instructions to the split edge device that include reference to a location of the content, and instruct the split edge device to send the content to an application and/or device. The application device, when the content is not stored to the split edge device, sends the content with instructions to store the content locally.
