We have been very busy working on our new products and services. We have now launched the General Purpose Storage. Starting at $2/month.
GP Storage (General Purpose Storage)
This service provides an option to offload your static files like images or other small media files or CSS/Javascripts. You can also host small PHP application in case you need to create your own API or some functions you need for your storage. One of the best feature of this service is the High-Availability Proxy and Cache. You can select the nearest proxy location for your users to deliver fast content. The static files such as images are cached in the proxy servers reducing the load of your origin/source (storage). The proxy servers are load balanced to handle high traffic. There is also a failover setup in case one load balancer is unavailable.
Notable Features:
- Highly Available Redundant Storage
- High-Availability Proxy with Cache with Failover
- Cache available on multiple locations
- Offsite Backup included (on separate data center)

Benefits:
