We haven't seen that with our customer base. Typically, a CDN charges for significant additional storage (multiplied by the number of points of presence used) as well as a - potentially reduced - bandwidth charge. Given that bandwidth from cloud providers (as opposed to having your own datacenter and leased line) is becoming very inexpensive, especially with the quantity discounts we offer, our customers actually saved bandwidth charges over the CDN's rates as well. There could potentially be a bandwidth cost savings if the CDN's bandwidth charges were very low, and the content you were serving didn't change very often, allowing you to make do with a lower-capacity link to the internet from your central service point. - enovikoff Mon, 15 Feb 2010 18:49:51 +0100 http://www.enkiconsulting.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=189&Itemid=184#pc_77 CDN is NOT only for speed reasons but also to lower bandwidth costs! - Niek Mon, 15 Feb 2010 13:06:13 +0100
