CrazyEngineers Is On CDN Now

CrazyEngineers Forum is now on CDN - aka Content Distribution Network. Specifically our static files (images, avatars, scripts) will be loaded from the server nearest to you 😀

Result: You should see faster loading pages and improved browsing experience.

    I noticed faster load page time. 👍
    For those who don't know about CDNs: CDN is a system that contains data copied at various locations across the network instead of keeping it at one centralized location. An end user accesses the copy of the data that is nearest to his machine. Thus we can experience increased bandwidth for data access. 😀

    Nope. CDN is designed in such a way that if the server is not available, it will either pull content to nearest available server or from the original server.

    Great.
    But what about the redundancy Admin.? Is a separate copy is stored at the individual server.?

    The static files are duplicated on all the servers. The PHP is still served from the original server. 😀
