Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a caching method, device, and computer program product for an edge server. The method includes acquiring a historical distribution of a set of variables associated with a network environment of the edge server, and generating one or more time series of the set of variables based on the historical distribution. The method further includes determining a caching strategy associated with the edge server based on the one or more time series of the set of variables. With the solution of the present disclosure, in an edge computing scenario, unnecessary overhead caused by ineffective caching can be reduced while ensuring smooth user experience.
