Actually need this for a small static site. Requirements:

  • Actually integrated, not just "enable Cloudflare yourself"
  • Origin pull with proper cache headers
  • At least 5 points of presence

Found three candidates: Vultr, HostHatch, CloudCone. Will test all and document results for future searchers. Request for Comments 7234 applies to cache behavior, actually.

I tested all three last month

Vultr is just a cf partner button not a real CDN

HostHatch integrated but throttled after 10 gig

CloudCone actually decent but only two pops

I am disappointed in the industry

CloudCone only one DC? That barely counts as a CDN honestly

your margin is my opportunity

One DC, not even one POP. A CDN needs distributed nodes. This is just a server with a marketing label.

Correction on my opening post: CloudCone has one datacenter in Los Angeles, not multiple POPs. I misread their marketing. So they fail the 5 POP requirement outright.

HostHatch at least has the geographic spread. The throttling is the real issue.

For my association in Lyon we use Scaleway. They have a CDN included with their Object Storage but it is not VPS. The VPS is separate. I think the original poster wants everything in one bill, yes?

prix fixe infrastructure: €5/mo

The throttling is after 10 GB per month on the cheapest plan. Their next tier up is $12 and claims unmetered but I have not tested. Maybe someone else has?
