Amazon.com is planning to implement a new service to help its users globally. The Internet Tycoon will release a new, high performance service for content delivery that will be available later this year. Content Delivery networks lets users download the data with high data transfer rates and low latency. The networks servers are set up across the globe to deliver data and are positioned nearer to consumers to prevent packet loss and traffic jams.
CDN only requires a single API call to start content delivering. The simple and easy service allows businesses to start without paying any green bucks and the service uses Amazon S3 for long lasting storage of your whole content. Amazon said the servers are implemented on edge locations of 3 continents North America, Europe and Asia to assure global presence and smooth delivery. CDN will be a boon to small companies and startups as they can deliver high quality of heavily intenerated graphic videos and stuff to their audience, even during live events. Amazon CTO Werner Vogels said the service is reliable, cost effective and simple to use.
The new CDN service will not support “live events”. It will not support streaming.
