Content Delivery Network Interconnection Metadata for Delegated Credentials
RFC 9677, “Content Delivery Network Interconnection Metadata for Delegated Credentials”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2024 by F. Fieau, E. Stephan, G. Bichot, C. Neumann. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The delivery of content over HTTPS involving multiple Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) raises credential management issues. This document defines metadata in the Content Delivery Network Interconnection (CDNI) Control and Metadata interface to set up HTTPS delegation using delegated credentials from an upstream CDN (uCDN) to a downstream CDN (dCDN).
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
