Embodiments may include a delivery mechanism failover. In one embodiment, a first portion of content and a first direction may be provided in response to a request for the content. The first direction may indicate a delivery mechanism from which to retrieve a second portion of the content. An indication of a failed delivery of the second portion of the content from the delivery mechanism may be received. In some embodiments, the indication of the failed delivery may be stored. Based on the received indication of the failed delivery, the first portion and a second direction may be provided in response to another request for the content, with the second direction indicating that the second portion is to be retrieved from another delivery mechanism.
