The growing ubiquity of Internet and cloud computing is having significant impact on media-related industries. These industries are using the Internet and cloud as a medium to enable creation, search, management and consumption of their content. Primarily, Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) are deployed for distributing multimedia content to the end-users. However, existing approaches to architecting CDNs have several limitations. Firstly, they do not harness multiple public cloud services for optimizing cost to performance ratio. Secondly, they lack support for dynamic and personalized content creation and distribution. Finally, they do not support end-to-end content lifecycle operations (production, deployment, consumption, personalization, and distribution). To overcome these limitations, in this paper, we propose, develop and validate a novel system called MediaWise Cloud Content Orchestrator (MCCO). MCCO expands the scope of existing CDNs with novel multi-cloud deployment. It enables content personalization and collaboration capabilities. Further, it facilitates do-it-yourself creation, search, management, and consumption of multimedia content. It inherits the pay-as-you-go models and elasticity that are offered by commercially available cloud services. In this paper, we discuss our vision, the challenges and the research objectives pertaining to MCCO for supporting next generation streamed, interactive, and collaborative high resolution multimedia content. We validated our system thorugh MCCO prototype implementation. Further, we conducted a set of experiments to demonstrate the functionality of MCCO. Finally, we compare the content orchestration features supported by MCCO to existing CDNs against the envisioned objectives of MCCO.
