| Enable CloudFront for Your Application’s Non-Dynamic Content |
|
|||
| October 02 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| CloudFront is Amazon’s Content Delivery Network, a service that aims to speed up delivery of content to users in different geographies. It gives developers access to a worldwide infrastructure that minimizes latency by serving content from the edge location closest to the end user.
This article describes two basic use cases utilizing a CDN for non-dynamic content in a typical web application, and provides CloudFront-specific configuration examples. |

Abstract: A rich cloud ecosystem is unfolding with clouds emerging to provide platforms and services of many shapes and sizes. We speculate that future network applications may wish to utilize and synthesize capabilities from multiple clouds. The problem is this may entail significant data communication that derives from the client server paradigm imposed by most clouds. To address this bottleneck, we propose a cloud proxy network that allows optimized data-centric operations to be performed at strategic network locations. We show the potential of this architecture for accelerating cloud applications. |

|
||||
| James and Geva talk to Greg Ness the Sr Director at Infoblox and Author of the Archemedius.net blog. Greg discusses Infrastructure 2.0: the concept that new IT environments such as virtualization and clouds require a new approach to infrastructure that embraces dynamic and automated systems. He also talks about his view on the need for a new approach to networking and other aspects of the infrastructure. |

| ETSI Technical Committee GRID (TC GRID) |
|
|||
|

| The goal of ETSI TC GRID is to address issues associated with the convergence between IT and Telecommunications. The focus is on scenarios where connectivity goes beyond the local network. This includes not only Grid computing but also the emerging commercial trend towards Cloud computing which places particular emphasis on ubiquitous network access to scalable computing and storage resources. | ||||
| MetaCDN |
|
|||
|
||||
| Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) such as Akamai and Mirror Image place web server clusters in numerous geographical locations to improve the responsiveness and locality of the content it hosts for end-users. However, their services are priced out of reach for all but the largest enterprise customers. An alternative approach to content delivery could be achieved by leveraging existing infrastructure provided by ’storage cloud’ providers, at a fraction of the cost. MetaCDN is a system that leverages several existing ’storage clouds’, creating an integrated overlay network that provides a low cost, high performance content delivery network for content creators. MetaCDN intelligently places content onto one or many storage providers based on the quality of service, coverage and budget preferences of participants. | ||||

|
||||
| A large class of distributed data-rich applications, including distributed data mining, distributed workflows, and Web 2.0 Mashups, are increasingly relying on cloud services to meet their data storage and computing demands. This project proposes a cloud proxy network that allows optimized and reliable data-centric operations to be performed at strategic network locations. | ||||
