A company, Akamai Technologies, evolved out of an MIT research effort aimed at solving a flash crowd problem. An approach based on the observation that serving Web content from a single location can present serious problems for site scalability, reliability, and performance. This paper devised a system to serve requests from a variable number of surrogate origin servers at the network edge.
