Abstract:
Method, computer program product and computer system for predictive caching for telecommunication towers having associated local servers, using propagation of identification of items of high demand data at a geographic level comprising the steps of: receiving within a region at least one request for an item of data made by a user device to a local server associated with a telecommunication tower within the region; and determining if the request is for an item of high demand data. If the item is identified as high threshold data, instructing the local servers within the region to cache the item of data; and if the item is identified as second threshold high demand data, sending an indication to at least one centralized server in an adjacent region, such that the centralized server in the adjacent region causes the local servers within the adjacent region to cache the item of data.
