Out of curiosity, what CDN does deliver 7M for $60/mo with sourcing from your colocated server?
For me Imgix is primarily a cheap CDN with the benefit of unlimited sizes of each image depending on the device.
- Veratyr 9y agoThe $60 above doesn't include bandwidth from either my transit provider or Imgix, you can purchase a CDN separately. Imgix is 8c/GB which is certainly competitive but by no means unique. CloudFront is only $0.005 more expensive on the higest tier and gets as low as $0.02 on the lowsest. A cheaper CDN like CDN77 starts at $0.049/GB and goes as low as $0.007/GB.
- boundlessdreamz 9y agoCloudfront charges for requests and it can often be the biggest component of your bill. CDN77 performance in terms of latency is not that great. If you are looking for a cheap CDN with good performance, buy edgecast from a reseller. The only problem with edgecast is that they charge a really high fee for SSL support for custom domains
- tdviking21 9y agoDisclosure, I am from imgix. If you start to exceed $500/month we can offer discounts and certainly when you are looking at millions of images then a flat rate at a lower level makes a lot more sense. 30 million unique images certainly should not be $90,000, that would be outrageous.
