Dear all,
I while ago I tried contacting MaxCDN.com about setting up SSL delivery (https:// …) with their CDN. Unfortunately they have not responded.
The web threat scenario has changed – tools like Sidejack have made it trivially easy to hijack browser sessions over plain HTTP. The answer IMHO is to deploy HTTPS more widely. (Hithub has a quick overview of what they’re doing on their blog, if you’re interested.)
So, for a new website I’m contemplating, I would like to have a lesser expensive CDN, with SSL support. This rules out Cachefly (and they’re also not exactly cheap), and possibly rules out MaxCDN as well.
Does anyone have a good suggestion for a lesser expensive CDN with SSL support? Ideal wish list is:
[list]
[]SSL support.
[]Less than 100 USD/month for a few GB of traffic pr month.
[]Anycast CDN, or actually I don’t care about their implementation, but good small-file performance (we mostly need the CDN for website ICO, IMG, JS, CSS files).
[]At least US & EU edge servers. Preferably US, EU & Asia.
[*]Optionally, streaming video zones as well. (Not required, just nice to have.)
[/list]
I welcome all suggestions. Thanks for looking at this.
