In Fabrix VIDFX system, a Region is a virtual entity that defines an area of the network that servers a logical group of subscribers. A region is defined according to a geographical location, and furthermore, to a specific OB. In Fabrix VIDFX system, a Region is composed of one or more PODs. A POD is the basic logical building block of the VIDFX system. It is composed of one or more Nodes. Nodes are COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) servers, which present a basic storage and computing element. A POD represents a virtual video server entity, which clusters a number of nodes interconnected. For Catch Up there will be as many PODs per OB as it was required depending how the system was required to scale. There are Fabrix settings that specific to each PODs. As an operator I must be able to add, edit, change, remove a POD and its settings through MiB.
