Abstract
Techniques for embedding watermarks are described. In accordance with various embodiments, a server (e.g., a cloud in a core network) generates a profile for an encoded media content item and packages the profile as corresponding watermark metadata. The server then transmits the encoded media content item and the corresponding watermark metadata to at least one edge node in an edge cloud. A respective edge node in the edge cloud, upon receiving a request from a client device for the encoded media content item, where the request includes a client identifier associated with the client device, obtains a first portion of the encoded media content item and the corresponding watermark metadata. A watermark embedder of the edge node then embeds the client identifier in the embedded media content item according to the watermark metadata and transmits the watermark embedded media content item to the client device.
