Most commercial CDN providers offer a simple way to meet the content demands of large audiences, at the cost of relinquishing control over delivery, and unforeseen operating expenditure during high demand. An alternative is to bring CDNs in house, which sounds daunting at first; how long will it take? Do we have the expertise to pull it off? When you’re working with pre-built components, setting up your own CDN is much easier and faster than you might think, especially when there is a team of content delivery experts to guide you through the process. Join us for this workshop on how to build you own CDN in under an hour, and discover: • How to deploy edge caching and origin protection components into any environment • How to overcome quality vs cost trade offs and deliver top performance within budget • How to strategically locate PoPs components to optimize the experience for key markets
