Amazon CloudFront + S3 vs Mosso Cloud Files
An article I had written for the ThemeForest.net blog was published today (”Using AWS S3 to Power Your Digital World“) and one of the comments to the article mentioned Mosso’s Cloud Files. I had heard of Cloud Files before but I couldn’t remember if I had really looked into it. Due to the comment I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at Cloud Files and give a quick comparison.
There are a few arguments as to why you should use Cloud Files instead of Amazon’s CloudFront + S3 and Mosso even wrote a blog post with 10 reasons why Cloud Files provides a better experience than CloudFront + S3. They have some really good points but from my perspective it comes down to two things, price and performance. So after taking a look at Cloud Files I’ve come up with a quick comparison.
