When designing the Open Connect Appliance Software, we focused on these fundamental design goals: - Use of Open Source software - Ability to efficiently read from disk and write to network sockets - High-performance HTTP delivery - Ability to gather routing information via BGP Operating System For the operating system, we use FreeBSD version 9.0. This was selected for its balance of stability and features, a strong development community and staff expertise. We will contribute changes we make as part of our project to the community through the FreeBSD committers on our team. Web server We use the nginx web server for its proven scalability and performance. Netflix audio and video is served via HTTP. Routing intelligence proxy We use the BIRD Internet routing daemon to enable the transfer of network topology from ISP networks to the Netflix control system that directs clients to sources of content. Acknowledgements We would would like to express our thanks to the FreeBSD community, the nginx community, and Ondrej and the BIRD team for providing excellent open source software. We also work directly with Igor, Maxim, Andrew, Sergey, Ruslan and the rest of the team at nginx.com , who provide superb development support for our project." -- Benjamin Francom Information Technology Professional http://www.benfrancom.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
