Abstract
A method for ingest of content for a content delivery network (CDN) having a plurality of geographically distinct points of presence (POPs). A first landing-pad application program interface (API) is hosted and accessible from a first POP. A second landing-pad API is hosted and accessible from a second POP. First and second content objects are received at the first and second land-pad APIs, respectively. A first tag is analyzed to find it applicable to the first content object. A second tag is analyzed to be applicable to the second content object. First and second storage media are selected based upon the respective analyses of the tags. The content object objects are stored with the respective storage media. The first and second content objects are stored in a consistent file structure.
