US Patent 10592578 Predictive content push-enabled content delivery network

A content delivery network (“CDN”) is provided herein that predicts content resources (e.g., a data object, such as a video file, an audio file, a script, an image, a document, etc.) that may be requested by a user device in the future and transmits or pushes such resources to the user device prior to receiving a request. The CDN may use artificial intelligence models, such as Markov models, in order to predict which content resources to retrieve and transmit proactively to the user device. The predictive techniques implemented by the CDN may reduce a latency of delivering requested content resources and/or a latency of the user device in rendering and displaying a content page.
