Caching and Download Services support standards-based models for delivering content rather than employing proprietary Download content delivery models that require customers to engineer their environment to fit the solution. The primary content delivery models supported are :
Object delivery
The most commonly used method to deliver content such as patches, file downloads, and multimedia content to large audiences. Objects can be tagged for complete control over delivery, authentication, and content freshness. Extended aliases can also be used to address more than one origin server using the same domain. This facilitates brand consistency as end users retrieve content from a customer’s domain regardless of the origin, allowing customers to have multiple servers for redundancy and content-staging purposes.
Total site delivery
The suite of services can be easily configured to serve all resources, like images, ActiveX and Flash for a particular domain name. This requires no modification to the origin server and can often be implemented with no rewriting of HTML.
Secure delivery
We offer flexible solutions for the delivery of HTTPS content. By off-loading SSL tunnel setup and persistence to the CDN, customers can effectively relieve the SSL burden from their Web sites. This not only increases performance, but allows Web servers to handle the delivery of non-cacheable objects as dynamic content, server-side applications, and database activity. Customers can opt for full integration with the use of a custom SSL certificate that matches their domain, or utilize a more economical shared certificate if they simply require the security of HTTPS.
