| 2021 | Joint Cache Size Scaling and Replacement Adaptation for Small Content ProvidersabstractElastic Content Delivery Networks (Elastic CDNs) have been introduced to support explosive Internet traffic growth by providing small Content Providers (CPs) with just-in-time services. Due to the diverse requirements of small CPs, they need customized adaptive caching modules to help them adjust the cached contents to maximize their long-term utility. The traditional adaptive caching module is usually a built-in service in a cloud CDN. They adaptively change cache contents using size-scaling-only methods or strategy-adaptation-only methods. A natural question is: can we jointly optimize size and strategy to achieve tradeoff and better performance for small CPs when renting services from elastic CDNs? The problem is challenging because the two decision variables could involve both discrete and categorical variables, where discrete variables have an intrinsic order while categorical variables do not. In this paper, we propose a distribution-guided reinforcement learning framework JEANA to learn the joint cache size scaling and strategy adaptation policy. We design a distribution-guided regularizer to keep the intrinsic order of discrete variables. More importantly, we prove that our algorithm has a theoretical guarantee of performance improvement. Trace-driven experimental results demonstrate our method can improve the hit ratio while reducing the rental cost. Jiahui Ye, Zichun Li, Zhi Wang 0001, Zhuobin Zheng, Han Hu 0003, Wenwu Zhu 0001 |
