Abstract
A proxy cache cluster (PCC) couples to a service provider of a communications network to increase the availability of services offered by the provider to clients connected to the network. The clients access the services by issuing requests to network addresses associated with these services. The PCC increases the availability of the services by receiving and servicing those requests on behalf of the service provider in accordance with a proxy cache clustering technique.
