I recently checked some providers for Content Delivery Network and i wanted to ask WHT members for their feedback and experience about various providers.
We dove into this project blindly, and now it seems we won't be able to stream the video b/c of pricing issues. We have a 40mb flash video @ 500bps, our client gets 30,000 visits a month, ~1500/day. Now we need to find a provider that will host the video and not break our budget. I contacted Lime Light and they gave me a quote at $1200/month, which is too high!
I have two vps servers, one in the US (VPSLAND) and one in the UK (WebhostingUK). My customers download from these, i route the nearest one to my customer based on their ip address. It's like a cheap do-it-yourself content delivery network. My question is: if my customer is in South Africa which server should I send them to; the US server or the UK server?
we have a broadcast network for about 200 tvs and 1300 radio stations and looking for a datacenter to get cheap dedicated bandwidth and space for our servers.
* 1 to 4 gbit bw * 1 full secure cabinet * 20 amp power * c class ip * non tech help * 2 years contract * north america or europe
He.net, uberbandwidth and fdc are lowest rates as i have found on the net. what would you recommend? any reviews about those (and other) dcs?
I recently read someone's blog post about surviving the front page of Digg on a budget. One tip involved using the Coral Content Distribution Network (AKA Coral Cache). The author provided .htaccess snippets for re-directing your traffic through this service.
Has anyone on these forums had experience using Coral Cache as an emergency availability measure? How did it work? Any drawbacks to report? A search turned up a few threads that mentioned Coral Cache, but none that specifically covered pros and cons.
I'm struggling hard to integrate a group of windows boxes to authenticate with a Linux samba/ldap server (with personal mapped drives as well). I get stuck in this error:
root@LittleCode:/usr/share/smbldap-configure# smbldap-useradd -a -m moquist Error looking for next uid in cn=NextFreeUnixId,dc=activespace,dc=local:value does not conform to assertion syntax at /usr/share/perl5/smbldap_tools.pm line 1071. root@LittleCode:/usr/share/smbldap-configure#
Our company uses Google Apps for Domain (and we are very satisfied with it). Until recently, we were accessing our email via[url], but we then realized that it can be accessible via [url]by updating CNAME and MX records for our DNS zone. We have full access to WHM and cPanel.
However, what we are trying to accomplish, if possible, that, when someone types [url], it does NOT redirect him/her to [url], but it remains on that very domain. For example, the address for GMail inbox in that case would be [url]
I have been stuck on a rather annoying issue using the Route53.php script included within the Plesk Extensions SDK - [URL] ....
Instructions were followed from [URL] .... but there are obvious confusions with the instructions.
First, it never mentions that within Server Management - Extensions you can load the extension and within the AWS Route 53 extension settings and you are prompted to enter in your identifying security keys. But the instructions ask to code these keys into the actual script, must this be done in both places??
Second, how does it operate?? After I install the extension/script must anything else take place? Do I register private dns addresses using my Route 53 ips and the rest is automatic? Should more information be added within the Plesk DNS template area or can I just turn off the DNS/Bind server and only utilize Route 53? There is no feedback in the UI letting you know it is actually on and working.
Third, I have tried to install the script in ssh and I always receive error:
ERR (3) [panel]: PHP Fatal error: Class 'pm_Loader' not found in /......./modules/route53/scripts/route53.php on line 8 I stumbled on a thread discussing this bug at [URL] .... but it leads to a dead end with the author withholding what the bug fix was and how to achieve it.
we utilize AWS Route 53 for a majority of our domains.
I'm trying to integrate AWS Route 53 DNS service with Plesk 11 but cant get it to work after carefully following the steps in the administrator and developing extensions guides.
What does integration with Amazon Route 53 mean? We can use the Plesk DNS panel and it will update Amazon Route 53? Is it an all or nothing, meaning can we choose Amz R 53 for some domains and local DNS (bind) on others?
