ABSTRACT:
The distributed multimedia server employs modular server elements that connect with client systems through a high bandwidth network. The server elements are connected in interleaved fashion with the switching elements and the data representing different media selections are arranged in stripe groups distributed across the server elements. The server can be as small as a single server element or grown incrementally, as needed, by connecting additional server elements to the system. Multiple copies of hot media selections are stored across the distributed architecture within different stripe groups to minimize bottlenecks within the storage subsystem.
