Hi, co-founder of Tigris here. There is a key difference between Tigris and a CDN. Tigris doesn't simply provide read caching like CloudFront. It allows what I call dynamic caching, i.e., you can literally update the object anywhere in the world, and any cached versions of the objects will be updated. So, I think of Tigris simply as a global object storage service, and the fact that it has caching built-in is more to provide fast performance and low latency than simply to mimic CDN behavior. But if you want to build a CDN, Tigris makes it trivial for a single developer to build a CDN.
