- antidaily 16y agoIf we're recommending DNS, let me suggest Nettica.
- mrkurt 16y agoHere's a general rule of thumb: If you're paying for Akamai, you're paying too much. :)
- petercooper 16y agoWhat does this mean? That Akamai commonly provide free services to high profile, high traffic sites that need their levels of throughput? Or..?
- mrkurt 16y agoIt really just means Akamai's expensive and you should find someone else to do CDN stuff. :)
- jbyers 16y agoVPS.net resells Akamai at shockingly low prices.
- mrkurt 16y agoTheir Wiki says it's Highwinds: http://www.vps.net/wiki/cdn-more-info http://www.vps.net/wiki/cdn-more-info
- jread 16y agoVPS.net sells both highwinds and Akamai. Akamai is $100 for 1 TB. However, they only offer origin pull, so performance will be slightly degraded versus using their NetStorage. http://www.vps.net/forum/public-forums/technical-discussions/2472-akamai-questions http://www.vps.net/forum/public-forums/technical-discussions...
- Skyline 16y ago+1 for http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/ http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/ . We've been using them for DNS since February 2007. http://dyn.com/dynect http://dyn.com/dynect is supposed to be pretty good too.
