Host can I host a file on a CDN?
Hi, I'm writing a jquery plugin and wondering what would be the best way to host this plugin on a CDN for my users?
Thanks, Thomas
- cleverjake 16y agopay money, pretty much. Unless you're planning on getting a huge amount of traffic, its generally not worth the cost to go to akami or anything. Some people have tried to use github or google app engine, but it doesnt appear that they cache any files at various locations,. They are more setup like S3, in that there is one master bucket, and far off nodes call home to get any files.
- vlod 16y agoAmazon's Cloudfront or Amazon S3 would probably work for you. http://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront http://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront

- david927 16y agoRackspace Cloud (CloudFiles) is what I use. I highly recommend it: http://www.rackspacecloud.com/cloud_hosting_products/files http://www.rackspacecloud.com/cloud_hosting_products/files
- blanketman 16y agoThanks looking into it
- jpmc 16y agoI like/use Amazon Cloudfront. Do you know this size of the plugin and your estimated downloads? Both Rackspace and Amazon will get the job done. You just have to decide on price and which system you want to depend on.
