Abstract
Some embodiments provide a log reporting system for a federation of independently operated CDNs so that logs, performance, analytics, and billing can be obtained for customers irrespective of which servers of which federation participants the customers' configurations are deployed to. The system includes a log aggregator, splitter, management agent, archival storage, dissemination agent, data log analyzer, and portal. The log aggregator aggregates server logs from servers of the federation participants. The splitter produces customer logs by regrouping the server logs on a per customer basis irrespective of which servers of which federation participants produced entries for each customer. The management agent controls operations of the archival storage, dissemination agent, and log analyzer. The archival storage archives customer logs. The dissemination agent disseminates customer logs. The log analyzer processes the customer logs to produce reports, analytics, and billing. The portal is an interface to access the customer logs.
