I've already read most docs for caching servers provided by major 
actors. What I'm mostly concerned about is their ability to peer with 
multiple AS on the local IXP, as to not over-replicate them.

Should I establish a dedicated network peering on the IXP ? Or will they 
come with their own ASNs ? The peering case is quite not documented on 
publicly available specs, if even possible.

Those I'm nearly sure I could get, if I can pool caches amongst ISPs. 
The current constraints are issues to any content provider, not just for 
local ISPs.
