Globale Verfügbarkeit

Content Delivery Network (CDN) X X CDN X X Less hops Prop. “hops” oder “poor links” Closest Point of Presence Blob Storage Public Container DNS name resolves to closest POP Blob header determines time-to-live at the edge

Content Delivery Network (CDN) 24 global distributed CDNs (99.95% availability) Setup a CDN via Management Portal – Generate 2 URLs for diffrent distributions Direct Access: Access via CDN: – CNAME Mappings for CDN URLs CDN for WebApps and Windows Azure Storage – CSS, Images,... Smooth streaming available as CTP

Lifetime of CDN Content Per Default Content stays alive for 72h Setup TTL via „cache control header“ x-ms-blob-cache-control: public, max-age= – hours, days, weeks – longer remaining objects reduces: costs, latency, other caches Usage of versioned URIs to change Content

Versioning of URLs CDN Superawesome WebApp … … logo png logo png … … logo png Easy to manage Rollback and different Versions Enables A/B Tests

CDN für Web Apps CDN support for Websites – Default URL: – CDN URL: – Cached from: CNAME & HTTPS support Important! The „cache control headers“ must be edited in order to use the OutputCache Module via Webapps

Daten Synchronisation
