Abstract
A system and method for distributed caching, the system having at least one network-connected storage device, a content server, and a control server. The control server is configured to discover the at least one network-connected storage device, collect device information from the at least one network-connected storage device, where the device information comprises a device location, assign each of the at least one network-connected storage device to a device domain based on each device location, and provide the content server with the device information for the one or more network-connected storage.
