What is the overseas integration CDN?

With the rapid development of cloud computing era, especially the arrival of streaming video era, many users will face many problems when using traditional CDN node resource allocation
Problem 1: The streaming media era is not limited to static content distribution. Video services such as live on-demand have an extremely large impact on latency. The adequacy of CDN resources is not enough to solve the problem of low latency.
Problem 2: In order to control costs, traditional CDN manufacturers will choose relatively cheap computer rooms at the edge nodes of the fourth and fifth tier cities, which means that reliability and controllability are reduced. In terms of capacity, service stability, cost and other aspects, the traditional CDN service generally uses one active and multiple standby. The main CDN traffic is consumed by the primary side. Once the primary side has a fault, it is switched to the standby side. This mode further leads to the use of disadvantages, namely, limited scheduling space, poor stability and high management costs.
How to make reasonable use of the resources of multiple CDN manufacturers, intelligent scheduling, and how to better integrate with the business will be difficult problems. In terms of use and access, it can be simple and easy to use and can support business agile development.

CDN manufacturers are constantly breaking restrictions by means of technology and resources, but at the same time, due to competition, the resources of individual CDN manufacturers are relatively closed, which has caused restrictions and bottlenecks to the development of the industry itself. The selection of overseas integrated CDN and the use of scenarios have become a trend. At present, there are many CDN manufacturers in the market, among which traditional CDN manufacturers and cloud CDN manufacturers account for the majority, while overseas integrated CDN has only developed in recent years. The logic of overseas integrated CDN is to break the node resources and scheduling capacity of a single CDN manufacturer, and break the restrictions of regional time and different operators. Integrate the resources of multiple CDN manufacturers at home and abroad through technical means, or combine with their own CDN resources, and comprehensively utilize the above resources through a powerful intelligent scheduling strategy to solve the problems in actual scenarios. It includes CDN infrastructure construction, full-link network quality monitoring, accurate and intelligent scheduling and efficient disaster recovery, excellent performance experience, cost-effective cost, and so on. Of course, the most important thing is to be able to solve the problems faced in the actual scenario and provide help for the relevant business, which varies from scenario to business.
In fact, the connotation of overseas integration CDN concept is also changing and evolving. Now it means more efficient and intelligent resource utilization and scheduling, and end-to-end three-dimensional quality control of the whole chain. Recently, P2P, edge computing and other technologies have also been constantly applied to CDN technology, changing the development of CDN technology, but it is still the same to solve the actual problems of users and scenarios. Generally speaking, overseas integrated CDN brings more bandwidth capacity reserves. Combined with refined link control, intelligent scheduling, real-time analysis and fine operation, it can bring more high-quality service effects, more stable and robust quality and relatively lower service costs.
At present, overseas integrated CDN is mainly applied to large-scale applications or platforms, or to meet the requirements of their own products for capacity, disaster recovery, effect, cost and other aspects of CDN acceleration. These requirements are often rich and complex, and they also want flexible and easy-to-use use and access methods, or some emerging CDN suppliers or participants rely on their own advantages in quality control, intelligent scheduling, fine operation and other aspects, Take advantage of the resources of traditional CDN manufacturers to provide more high-quality and easy-to-use CDN services.

So how to choose overseas integrated CDN manufacturers?
Three criteria for selection: node quality, technical indicators and service support. In fact, users’ requirements for CDN are not the number of resources, but the stability and high performance of the final use. Whether the CDN resource is provisioned through intelligent scheduling strategy to make users use it without awareness, or to achieve multiple CDN disaster recovery and fast switching in extreme disaster situations. In addition, the flexible processing of bandwidth capacity and the monitoring of the whole link will be the selection criteria for the fusion CDN manufacturer. Especially whether the intelligent scheduling system can schedule nodes from multiple dimensions such as availability, performance and cost based on data. Ensure that each end user has the best performance in different areas.
At present, there are hundreds of CDN companies in China, large and small. If you don’t know the situation and choose again, it is easy to buy CDN services that are both expensive and difficult to use. When it comes to technical index data, the test should focus on data such as delay, blocking rate, download speed, open speed, and broadband redundancy improvement rate. According to the official data of Gomez, a global third-party speed-measuring company, when the page loading time exceeds 7 seconds, 50% of users will choose to give up, and each additional 1 second delay will bring a 7% reduction in conversion rate. Generally, the total loading time of 100K web material is less than 250ms, which is regarded as high-quality CDN. The choice of service support is also important. The best cost-performance model is selected under the comprehensive comparison of price, technical indicators and service model. After the performance is guaranteed, the monitoring level of the platform, DNS scheduling ability, and the flexibility and scalability of the platform’s own system should be paid attention to by the early research.

Fire umbrella cloud overseas integration CDN is mainly for overseas users to meet various delay scenarios and needs. The Umbrella Cloud CDN acceleration service itself is positioned to provide developers with one-stop, end-to-end acceleration services. Based on the SDK and open APIs provided by the Umbrella Cloud service platform, it can quickly build a live, on-demand, real-time audio and video applications. By integrating CDN technology and combining the resources of more than 30000 nodes around the world, Umbrella Cloud not only perfectly solves the problems of multi-CDN disaster recovery, bandwidth capacity, link selection, intelligent scheduling, full-link monitoring, etc., but also provides customers with high-quality service experience, and makes use of and access easy.
