- Looking for low-cost CDN alternatives to CloudFront without losing performanceby /u/brainrotter007 on October 7, 2025 at 1:55 pm
Hey folks, I’m in a bit of a CDN dilemma and could really use some advice. We’re currently serving our React frontend through AWS CloudFront, and the monthly bill has started touching $200+ just for the CDN. The usage has grown beyond 1 TB bandwidth per month, and we’re also crossing the free-tier limit for the number of requests, around 10million+ daily. At this scale, I’m trying to figure out what’s the best option that balances speed + cost efficiency. I’ve been considering Cloudflare (free or Pro plan), but I’ve heard mixed reviews about its performance compared to CloudFront, especially for global delivery. So for a setup that needs to stay fast worldwide but bring down CDN costs — Which CDN would you recommend? Is there any way to optimize CloudFront to cut costs (cache policies, compression, Origin Shield, etc.) before switching? Any real-world benchmarks or migration stories from CloudFront → Cloudflare / Bunny / Fastly / others? Would love to hear from anyone who’s been through this kind of scale jump. submitted by /u/brainrotter007 [link] [comments]

- Hostinger – Frankfurt Issuesby /u/Minimum-Remove9215 on October 6, 2025 at 7:21 pm
Is anyone else facing issue with Hostinger Frankfurt? Their online support doesn’t state the timeline to get things back to ‘normal’. Kodee gave completely false information about migrating to a new location. submitted by /u/Minimum-Remove9215 [link] [comments]
- What is the best web hosting provider?by /u/CandyBoyCzech on October 6, 2025 at 2:56 pm
I currently have one project on a VPS at Hetzner, using CloudPanel and WordPress. CloudPanel is great, but it involves full server maintenance, including security, which I simply don’t have time for. I pay around 10 € per month, and thanks to optimization and availability, the website’s speed is excellent. I’m therefore looking for a web hosting solution that can take care of all that for me. My goal is definitely top-notch responsiveness, speed, and uptime. I’m interested to know which web hosting provider you consider the best for hosting one larger website. I prefer cloud infrastructure located in Central Europe. 🙂 submitted by /u/CandyBoyCzech [link] [comments]
