Abstract

See full text

In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with retrieval of a file stored at multiple storage locations, such as a content file. A file retrieving device may receive an identifier of multiple storage locations from which a file may be downloaded, including content delivery networks and distinct storage servers at a particular content delivery network. The decoder may retrieve portions of the file from the different indicated storage locations. The file retrieving device may be configured to assign portion sizes to various storage locations based on a history of bandwidth experienced from the various storage locations. The file retrieving device may be configured to dynamically manage retrieval of portions of the file from the multiple storage locations, such as by re-assigning a slow or stalled portion from one storage location to a faster or underutilized storage locations. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
