The '''Cache Discovery Protocol''' (CDP) is an extension to the [[BitTorrent]] file-distribution system. It is designed to support the discovery and utilisation of local data [[cache|caches]] by BitTorrent peers, typically set up by [[Internet Service Providers|ISPs]] wishing to minimise the impact of BitTorrent traffic on their network.
 
The Cache Discovery Protocol was originally developed jointly by [[BitTorrent, Inc.]] and [[CacheLogic]] and first implemented in version 4.20 of the [[BitTorrent_(client)|official BitTorrent client]], released [[June 22]], [[2006]]. However, despite claims that the details of the protocol would be published, to date no specification havehas been made publically available.
