Using TinyCDN is like having personal use of a jumbo jet without requiring the significant investment needed to obtain one. Consider a trip from New York to Japan. You have several options for making such a trip: a long and expensive trip using buses, boats, and trains, several short and crowded flights, or a trip on a large jet with the added bonus of a good night’s rest. Which would you prefer?
Your data is similar to the world traveler in that it too has multiple options for traversing the world: it can crawl slowly through crowded phone lines, bounce its way around the world through hundreds of servers, or hop onto a Content Distribution Network (CDN) and reach its destination in virtually no time at all. CDN’s are the internet equivalent of a Boeing 747, one of the fastest, most reliable ways to travel around the world. There are a lot of great things about CDN’s, including their speed, reliability, scalability, and security. However, CDN’s suffer from some of the same limitations as their aircraft counterpart: they’re complicated, expensive, and really, really, difficult to get into. Many find that CDN companies make accessing your data as difficult as negotiating through airport security.
For travelers there’s no easy way to avoid going through an airport to reach their destination, but for clients who wish to exploit CDN’s benefits, there is hope. TinyCDN is a revolutionary new product which provides the user with a quick, friendly, and affordable way to manage their content on a CDN. TinyCDN is not a CDN on its own, but rather its a thin layer that interfaces between the client and the Amazon CDN, CloudFront. CloudFront has a very extensive network with some of the least expensive pricing on the market, but many find that its data interaction interfaces are messy and labor intensive to start up. Setting up an account requires a client to write actual, nitty-gritty code. Once the account is set up, the management of files is not much simpler.
The developers of the TinyCDN concept believe that having an on-staff developer should not be a requirement for using and benefitting from a CDN. Why wrestle with code and complicated uploading software when there’s a solution that can do it for you? TinyCDN will guide you through the entire process of setting up an account and will have you efficiently managing your content within a matter of minutes. Its web-based interface is smart and intuitive and can be accessed from anywhere in the world. Users can easily build their own folder structure, upload and create files, set expires headers and compress data if desired.
Many businesses today recognize the tremendous benefits of using CDN’s for managing content and are looking for the best solution available to leverage CDN’s capabilities. TinyCDN is the simple, convenient, and affordable answer for businesses of all sizes looking to take advantage of the many benefits associated with a Content Distribution Network.
