Comment by jasoncartwright 1 day ago Prime video uses a non-AWS CDN when I watch football on it here in the UK 3 comments jasoncartwright Reply farfatched 1 day ago The BBC were unable to find a single CDN that could serve the UK during its peak football matches. https://www.bbc.co.uk/webarchive/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.co.uk... jamesfinlayson 15 hours ago I'd believe it - CloudFront always felt a bit like AWS ticking a box ("we have a CDN") rather than being a good to use product. grogenaut 11 hours ago that's called load balancing and regional availability. many companies do multi-cdn. in fact it's smart to use multiple CDNs so you can do better in contract time. Twitch uses IVS but we have failover to other CDNs for very large events.
