The more CDN providers, the more choices you have for less money. If you are using Vultr as a hosting provider, it's much easier to enable/disable CDN out of the control panel.

everything works in our sandbox. We need a couple of customers to collect real data. I'll definitely going to post again with these numbers.

for unpopular content, we will deploy a limited number of servers (belong to Farba) with a performant disk subsystem. A web cache storage is a separate option in every CDN: if you want your files always in "hot" cache, you have to

to answer this question, I will write another article how we distribute cache among the Peers. Long story short: - we divide web cache in buckets - these buckets have different sizes - we know a list of files in every bucket - we know what

A customer can switch on/off regions. Also, they can set up a cap for every region. You can do it with regular CDNs as well, it's just a setting.

IPFS is very slow. It's like a cold storage. Not good for web-cache at all. Though Cloudlare provides gateways for IPFS, and again, we have a CDN layer here. It would be nice to see IPFS performance numbers to compare.

>a CDN isn't just about bandwidth, it is about _disk_ The disk performance - is the weakest part of the Peer. It is a part you can't guarantee any QoS on a cheap server. The idea is to keep popular cache on Peers in memory. Eve
