That may have been true at one time, but I 'm fairly certain it's not the case anymore.

What you can do nowadays is actually point the DNS for your entire site to them, and the system will cache what it can, and is intelligent about dynamic vs. static elements. This also has the benefit of greatly improving the performance and reliability of routing users to your site, since the DNS is essentially embedded across their whole distributed network. Although they don't advertise this point specifically, a lot of big sites use them largely for the distributed DNS, which makes DNS-based DDOS attacks almost impossible. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:281920 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
