Content can be replicated automatically to facilitate distribution of the content to one or more devices. Determinations can be made automatically regarding where to replicate data, how to replicate data, and when to replicate data based on a variety of collected data with respect to devices, content servers, content sources, and content. More particularly, one or more content servers can be identified as targets for content replication and a protocol can be determined to replicate content from at least one source to the one or more content servers identified. Subsequently, replication can be initiated to the one or more content servers with the corresponding protocol at a determined time. Further, similar mechanisms can be employed to enable automatic determination of how and when to distribute or replicate content from one or more content servers to one or more target devices.
A method performed by a system comprising at least one processor coupled to a memory storing machine-executable instructions, which, when executed, control the system to perform acts comprising:
A system, comprising:
