Tony, What kind of spikes are you anticipating? 100mb per day? 100gb per day? 100gb per hour? 1,000,000 views per day?
I would talk to "the big guys" of hosting to see if their shared hosting will allow what you anticipate. I used to use 1and1.com for hosting videos on a shared server and had no problems, but now have everything on blip.tv because I don't have to worry about bandwidth issues at all. If you currently have a host just call them and ask. -Lan www.LanBui.com -------------------- On Feb 7, 2007, at 6:56 AM, toekneearm wrote: Hey. Is anyone using a separate server for their videos? Something that can handle spikes in downloads/streaming? I want to avoid the expense of a dedicated server. I need to host all formats. Thanks!
