The service is priced at only $20.00 per month for the first 200GB of data
transferred and only $0.20 per GB thereafter, making it the simplest and most
competitive CDN solution in the market.
“CDNLayer is one more way we
provide enterprise-class services to customers of any size,” said Nathan Day,
Chief Technology Officer at SoftLayer. “Consumer demand for online video and
media-rich websites is exploding. Companies and individuals in every industry,
from entertainment and gaming to social networking and e-commerce, will benefit
from using CDNLayer to optimize their content management and
delivery.”
CDNLayer uses a network of multiple, geographically diverse
server nodes running advanced software that organizes, stores, and streams
online content. Rather than serving content directly from the host server to the
end-user, CDNLayer moves content from the host server to a node that is
geographically closer to the end-user. This minimizes the distance the data has
to travel, avoiding network traffic jams, and decreasing latency. CDNLayer
includes tools for improved management, helping with content monetization. In
addition, it features the ease-of-use and increased control for which SoftLayer
is known.
“The Internet originally was not designed to deliver content
that requires large transfer rates, leading to poor performance, interruptions,
and failed downloads,” said Nathan Day, Chief Technology Officer at SoftLayer.
“CDNLayer changes that. Content is delivered faster and more reliably, creating
an improved user experience—leading end-users to spend more time on a site and
use its services.”
