MYcontentDIRECTORY based on MYiNTERNET technology transforms the world's best networking solutions, such as Cisco's Content Distribution Network (ACNS), into a easy-to use and educationally beneficial circumstance for teachers.


So why does MYcontentDIRECTORY make world class Networking and Caching technology better?

MYcontentDIRECTORY has been designed to work with Cisco Content Distribution Networking technology, but has been extended to integrate with caching technology from providers such as Equiinet, Appliansys and many others. This will allow you to turn your traditional caching infrastructure into a Content Distribution Network.




More and more today the normal method for delivery of content is the Internet. Many schools have limited bandwidth and are keen to leverage caching. Traditional caching technologies rely on caching content as users access the content. This can still put a strain on bandwidth resources. Content Distribution is about pre-positioning content locally in the school or classroom before it is required utilising times when bandwidth is not being used - for example overnight.

Additional technologies such as proxying streaming media (video/audio), and stream splitting can also greatly enhance bandwidth savings.

MYcontentDIRECTORY provides a simple straightforward mechanism that will automatically instruct local caches to pre-position the required content. Content can be simply organised into channels allowing staff to simply choose a channel of content and know that those resources will be pre-positioned in their school and will be accessible at local network speeds to the pupils during class time.
