That’s a very impressive before and after graph!
If you’re using Google appengine then you’re probably using a CDN created by a script running there, right? Does it have any timeout or cache buster?
I was thinking of making some kind of cron job on my host server to run periodically and run script to upload the newer files to cdn .. but I doubt it’s possible after some reading ..
No I’m using Eclipse to sync google cdn with my local copy of files, pretty manual work.. but with my location time is tripled in speed 🙂
I had a quick look thought appengine’s docs the other day, isn’t there a command line tool for uploading files? Wouldn’t using that to upload newer files not acheive the task?
Yes Backie,
to achive this task I just would need to run this cmd line:
python appcfg.py update name_of_my_app
but I don’t know how to handle this updating on appengine …
Do you have some idea maybe ?
Well I assume that the appcfg.py will just upload all the files in the folder so if you have a cron script that runs every 24 hours checking for files that that less than 24 hours new copy them in to that directory and then sync then clear the directory. I belive that would acheive the result you’re wanting.
I suspect that there may be some way I can intergrate the use of google appengine with my cdn sync tool plugin. I’ll look into it, if I can then I’ll add it. Since free stuff rock. 🙂
Totally agree with you!
I did managed to test my hoster for python, it works!
But this can be problem, don’t know ..
appcfg.py communicates over https with google cdn, and auth is a bit problem I think. I can input my email credential but no password through command line –email=my-email@gmail.com — no pass option ??
Thanks for effort!
I’ve had some mixed experiences with using GAE to host static files on Google’s massive CDN. Basically sometimes Google’s servers would not return the static file, instead displaying an error that the client browser had “malicious behaviour” or something like that.
Do you guys know of an easy tutorial to get all of this working? I would really like to use a free reliable CDN. This seems like some work, but worth it.
You can try speedymirror.com, till 50 Gb it is free. If you subscribe tell us how it goes.
I just signed up there, that was easy. Seems to be working well on ocaoimh.ie too.
Actually, I quit W3Total Cache and came to Super Cache. I used my speedymirror url for the CDN. However, I find Super Cache is not able to see anything on the mirror and was searching for any leads for this problem. Could you tell me how you went about supplying this info to Wp Super Cache?
I use Super Cache as well. Would like to know the deets! Thanks, guys.
Homelite – I just added the Speedymirror CDN url on the CDN settings page. Make sure you include the “http://” bit too.
Hi,
I wrote a post about Google CDN with WP Super Cache and hope it can help someone.
