DESCRIPTION:Netflix has become a worldwide video-streaming platform and th
 e source of a large amount of the Internet traffic. It has achieved this w
 ithout building its own datacentres\, by controlling a network of servers 
 deployed at Internet Echange Points (IXPs) and within Internet Service Pro
 viders (ISPs). Despite its wide success and novel approach to infrastructu
 re deployment\, we have little understanding of its deployments and operat
 ions. Through extensive measurements\, we reveal Netflix's footprint\, its
  traffic patterns and volumes. Our analysis of Netflix's server deployment
  exposes the diversity of the Internet ecosystem world-wide. Our findings 
 also suggest that the specifics of each regional ecosystem\, coupled with 
 the demand of each local market\, explain the different deployment strateg
 ies.\n\nBio: Timm is a second year PhD student at Queen Mary University of
  London supervised by Steve Uhlig and Felix Cuadrado. His research centres
  around Internet measurements and performance\, he is especially intereste
 d in infrastructures and distributed systems used for today’s large-scal
 e content delivery networks.  Before joining QMUL\, he was a student at Te
 chnical University Munich (TUM).
