The author also drastically overestimates the capabilities of cloud vendors. CDN and edge have been and will continue to be great business (as you well know) despite pundits predicting their sublimation to cloud subsidiaries for over a decade. For one, capacity planning a public cloud is a lot different and a lot harder than cdn/edge. So the cloud vendor must then act a lot like a cdn/edge, which none have shown any competence in doing. There's a reason Amazon still uses Akamai, Level3, and others for their own Prime Video. CloudFront is a joke in comparison to any prime CDN in terms of network breadth, latency, and overall support from the vendor. |
