Abstract

See full text

A data streaming transmission method and system is disclosed having a network server connected to client device through a communication network with one or more of caching servers. The network server has a data streaming application and a memory for storing data. A series of connections, each using a data streaming arrangement, is formed in the path between the source network and client device by the caching servers. Each caching server can absorb network congestion in its downstream connection by utilizing an expandable buffer for storing additional segments of the streamed data and varying the transmission data rate in the down stream connection.
