Implementación de una red de distribución de contenido aplicada a un sistema Web para la microempresa JJGAsociados

Abstract

This project is a study of the Content Distribution Network (CDN), designed in a virtualized environment, that was applied it to a distributed system to improve the infrastructure of the Web service of the JJGASOCIADOS Microenterprise. This project used XP methodology to managed with simplicity the communication in the work team to get the specifications. The objectives were stated considering the advantages that the CDN presents, checking the proper functioning of a network them contains these services, allowing a replica of content that is stored on the main server and redirected to its servers, to get better network capabilities and avoiding the problems generated by a centralized network. The tests were developed in two different network infrastructures, so that the design of the original network showed that is not optimal, since it exposed several deficiencies in terms of network traffic and response time when the users want to access it. When they compared the current network of the microenterprise against the another one that contains the services of the CDN, it was concluded that the first network is not optimal to handle a large number of requests because the page could be saturated causing congestion in it. While, the designed network was being more efficient, useful and robust, since the results showed benefits generated by the redirection or by congestion or by distance applied to the page generated like a web site for the company in the virtual environment.
