Providing Resource Allocation and Performance Isolation in a Shared Streaming-Media Hosting Service

Overview The trend toward media content hosting is seeing a significant growth as more rich media is used in the enterprise environment and as it becomes mission critical for businesses. A shared media hosting service supports the illusion that each hosted service has its own media server, when, in reality, multiple "Logical hosts" may share one physical host. For such a shared media hosting service, the ability to guarantee a specified share of server resources to a particular hosted service is very important. This paper presents SharedMediaGuard - a shared media hosting infrastructure that can efficiently allocate the predefined shares of server resources to the hosted media services.
