CDN Recommendation

安装 托管
1

I’m about to launch a couple new communities in the upcoming weeks and I’m working out all of my hosting and plugin details. A concern I have is storage of uploads. It’s mostly a preemptive measure I’m considering. But I know very little about them. A few questions:

  1. Is a CDN worthwhile at the onset? I’m planning to do the $20/month Digital Ocean installation.
  2. I think I read a topic here about migrating to a CDN later. Am I correct in thinking it’s a simple move later on?
  3. What are some of the most common and most recommended providers? I typically just hear of Amazon.

I greatly appreciate any feedback you can give.

  1. CDNs being worthwhile on the onset depends on the expected userload and cost. Fortunately there are things like cloudflare which are free and provide an amazing feature to cost ratio.
  2. Yes, moving to a CDN later is quite easy
  3. Some of the most common and recommended providers at relatively fair prices are

MaxCDN
Fast.ly
CloudFlare

Thanks, @ColdSun. I’m unsure of the load expectation currently. But I’ll certainly look into those.

For now, it’s nice to know I don’t have to worry about it.

I would also look at keycdn they already fully rolled out http/2

Maxcdn and fastly are great we use both

Thanks, Sam. Will do. I thought I’d seen Fastly was used here on meta but wasn’t sure. Thanks for the feedback.

Additionally, if http/2 is something you’re interested in, CloudFlare also supports it (in addition to KeyCDN as mentioned by Sam)

I’ve been using CloudFlare’s freebie and I really like the benefits and their DNS management.

在 2022 年，对于非常低流量/非商业网站，并且价格预期基于“droplet”成本，这里的推荐“第一梯队”提供商有哪些？

看起来 Fastly 在技术上被推荐，但如果你想要：

  • 支持 Let’s Encrypt 证书的 TLS
  • 你自己的域名

似乎最低收费是 50 美元。

这对于爱好/非营利/粉丝网站/第一年低流量来说是否太贵了？

Cloudflare 在定价方面似乎很有吸引力，但技术上不被认为是最佳选择？

如果您正在寻找一个经济实惠且功能完善的 CDN，bunny.net 是一个不错的选择。

我考虑从 Stackpath 迁移到 CDN 已经有一段时间了，我一直在等待，因为我想确保我可以在不重建所有帖子的情况下更改我的 CDN。

我认为我现在要认真处理这件事了，因为 Stackpath 从下个月开始将基础价格从 10 美元提高到 27 美元（据称并非新情况，但我不知道）：

您好，

您可能还记得，我们在 2021 年 3 月停止为新客户提供每月 10 美元的 StackPath CDN 订阅。

从那时起，我们一直为之前的订阅客户保持该订阅价格不变，以提供尽可能长的过渡期。

不幸的是，我们现在正式取消了每月 10 美元的价格。从您的下一个账单周期开始，您的订阅将按照 StackPath CDN 当前的标准价格收费：

  • SP// CDN Standard – 每月 27.50 美元
  • SP// CDN Additional Sites – 每站点每月 1.10 美元
  • SP// CDN Additional Bandwidth - Tier 2 (1TB - 100TB) – 每 GB 0.044 美元
  • SP// CDN Additional Bandwidth - Tier 3 (>100TB) – 每 GB 0.033 美元

我们希望我们提供的延长过渡期以及您亲身体验到的 StackPath CDN 的优势，能够证明我们平台的价值以及我们对客户的承诺。

由于我的论坛流量相当低，即使是 10 美元也太多了。

在这个价位上，Cloudflare 是无与伦比的。你可以把它用作一个简单的 CDN（创建一个新的 DNS，它也指向你的论坛并将其配置为 DISCOURSE_CDN_URL）或作为整个论坛的代理。

无论哪种方式，都不要忘记禁用 RocketLoader。
