What`s
Windows Azure Content Delivery Network?
I was
recently asked what you can use Windows Azure Content Delivery network for.
It`s a
worldwide system that intend to cache and delivery blob content. There is about
20+ datacenters around the globe hosting this service (CDN).
When you
have a storage account in Windows Azure, it can be enabled for CDN. The blob must be placed in a public blob
container that`s accessible by using an anonymous sign-in.
The
reason?
CDN is
meant to reduce latency and maximizes bandwidth by delivering content closer to the user.
So if
you have data that`s not constantly changed, you should consider CDN for the
best user experience.
