We study the online page replication problem. We present a new randomized algorithm for rings which is 2.37297-competitive, improving the best previous result of 3.16396. We also show that no randomized algorithm is better than 1.75037-competitive on the ring; previously, only a 1.58198 boundfor a single edge was known. We extend the problem in several new directions: continuous metrics, variable size requests, andre plication before service. Finally, we give simplified proofs of several known results.
