Cheap CDN

jhjh Member

Can anyone recommend a CDN service with good coverage (inc. Asia/Australia if possible) that is very cheap on a low commit? It will be used primarily for relatively large Javascript files.

Best I've seen so far is MaxCDN at $7 with the promo, but it doesn't include Asia or Australia.

  • http://www.jsdelivr.com/ has good global coverage, no idea wether it's allowing large things though.

    I don't think this would be well-suited to our needs. Most of the files we need to deliver are proprietary or licensed.

  • Amazon Cloudfront is geat if you want Asia/AU

  • OVH - £8?

  • OVH or Cloudflare.

    Build your own CDN with several low end boxes as I did that.

  • jhjh Member

    Cloudflare isn't an option. OVH and AWS look good.

    Thanks but I have enough to worry about without purchasing 10-20 cheap VPSs :)

    Voxelcdn has 10c Asia from what appears to be SG. Cloudfiles uses Akamai and goes at 12c

    Our website runs behind ovh cdn. OVH cdn is good for the price they charge. Recently there was an issue ( software update that took 48 hours to complete - http://travaux.ovh.net/?do=details&id=10381 ) that resulted a long downtime for some locations. Monitors were going crazy for 24-36 hours straight and we had to switch to cloudflare for the duration of upgrade. There was no prior information, email or notice about this upgrade whatsoever. So decide yourself.

    It looks like I cannot order OVH cdn on their US site

  • $45 first year in Maxcdn http://j.mp/1nlQHbT (is an affiliate link, apparently did not have a direct link from your website)

  • AWS is IMHO the best zero-cost upfront, super easy to scale up solution. Dead simple to get rid of as well if another provider ends up being cost effective at a higher volume.

    If you can't order I'd be happy to resell to you, PM if you want. Something like $4 for 250GB Bandwidth

    do you have tutorial about that?

    Too lazy to write. Basically, Nginx + Varnish + some php to provision the configure file and bandwidth accounting. PM me your email, I can share some of the scripts I use.

    OK. If there are enough interests, I would probably wrote a tutorial.

    +1, I've been trying to accomplish something similar to that for over a month now. It'd be extremely helpful! :)

    Thanks for posting. FYI, according to that page, Asia (the OP's request) is another $10/month.

  • dnwkdnwk Member

    very brief stuff http://www.linkun.info/story/?p=1834 @darknyan I am not use to wrote tutorials and it probably wrote too much stuff for none tech

    Their Asia and AU isn't strong at all. That's why didn't recommend them for this.

  • i use cloudflare. it is cheap free. I just host one personal blog, btw :-P
