Store your files in backblaze then proxy them through some cheap vps (to cover bandwidth) and add local cache through something like nginx so you're not going to the source frequently.
- iMerNibor 8y agoSome hints: ovh is good for eu/(northern) us (loadbalancing ip + vps behind it to spread load - be prepared to ditch vps if you're getting horrible performance), scaleway if you can live with just eu Probably as cheap as it gets from big providers Obviously going to have to compromise (round robin dns > ~1gbps, self managed stuff), but thats just expected If it's just images probably just go with cloudflare
- joshribakoff 8y agoCan make byte range requests a bit complicated and slows down your site when there's cache misses
- fleitz 8y agoUse the slice command in nginx and $slice_range your cache key ;)
- joshribakoff 8y agoI'm not asking for advice I'm stating it does technically complicate your setup. What if two people request overlapping ranges concurrently etc... it is more moving parts to setup, test and administer
