Cluster architecture is a cost-effective approach to building up scalable servers. For I/O-intensive videoon-demand (VoD) applications, network bandwidth is usually the primary bottleneck. In this paper, we propose a request redirection strategy to balance the network traffic in cluster-based VoD servers. The redirection strategy utilizes the servers' internal backbone bandwidth to equalize their external network traffic. Performance of redirection is related with data layouts based on replication. We implemented two replication methods and two placement methods for videos with different popularities. Furthermore, we evaluated redirection strategy with different data layouts. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the redirection strategy and proposed data layout methods.
