Azure CDN: Global Delivery & Awesome Uptime
Pros
- Global reach - we have customers around the world and they all get excellent performance.
- Global availability - we've never had down time on Azure CDN.
- Easy management - you can do everything easily from the portal connecting things to a storage container and from there it's zero management except purging on new content.
Cons
- For the longest time they didn't have a robust SDK. They have one now, but it could be better.
- The different flavors of Azure CDN (Akamai, Verizon, etc) have different costs, but not well differentiated features. Might be confusing to new users.
- I'm not overly familiar with it, but AWS does have a programmability in their CDN offering (Lambda @ Edge) and Azure doesn't seem to have an equivalent (Azure Functions is region-specific).
Return on Investment
- Performance improvements - On first change to Azure CDN, we had a great bump in page load times in our app.
- Evergreen Deployment - Simplified updating code in our apps by putting it all in one place.
