# metadata?

 * I’m interested!
    If I understand correctly, I continue to manage my (mostly jpeg
   image) resources through the WordPress media library, but the DreamSpeed plugin
   behind the scenes copies the files to regionally distributed DreamObjects buckets
   and seamlessly modifies the URLs – is that close anyway? Is it safe to assume
   gallery plugins (EnviraGallery in my case) handle this gracefully? Here’s what
   I need to know before I jump: is the metadata I have carefully added to each 
   image in the media library (title, caption and alt text) preserved? Thanks for
   clarification on this point. Steve

 * The metadata is stored in the database, and it won’t get touched by this plugin.
   Only the URLs in the posts.

 * Wonderful. Thanks for your clarification. I presume for a DreamPress-hosted site
   I would want to clear the Varnish cache after enabling this plugin?

 * And one (for now!) follow up question. Is it safe to assume that if for some 
   reason in the future I (or someone who takes over the management of this site
   from me) decide to discontinue using the DreamObjects CDN, I/they can simply 
   disable the plugin and WordPress will revert to serving resources the conventional
   way?
