You are designing a Windows Azure web application that includes many static content files.
The application will be accessed from locations all over the world by using a custom domain.
You need to recommend an approach for providing access to the static content with the lowest possible latency.
Which two actions should you recommend?
(Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
A. Place the static content in Windows Azure Blob storage.
B. Place the static content in Windows Azure Table storage.
C. Configure a custom domain that is an alias for the Windows Azure Storage domain.
D. Configure a custom domain that is an alias for the Windows Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) domain.
Correct Answer: AD
Explanation/Reference:
You can store text and binary data in either of two types of blobs:
Block blobs, which are optimized for streaming.
Page blobs, which are optimized for random read/write operations and which provide the ability to write to a range of bytes in a blob.
Windows Azure provides the Windows Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) to deliver Windows Azure Blob content. Windows Azure CDN offers developers a global solution for delivering high-bandwidth content.
The benefit of using a CDN is better performance and user experience for users who are farther from the source of the content stored in the Windows Azure blob storage.
