TOTD #2: Life Magazine and CloudFront

LIFE

Today Google released LIFE magazine photo archive. This is pretty spectacular, but I don’t really have much to go on about, the photos pretty much speak for themselves.

CloudFront

I found out from a friend of mine that Amazon released CloudFront, a new competitor to the CDN market. It is a great thing for the small companies trying to get going because I believe the big CDNs have minimum agreements. The one downside is that you have to pay for S3 traffic too, so in some ways you are doubling costs of the traffic. If you really need multi-continent coverage though its probably one of the best routes, especially if you use Amazon Web Services.
