Creating FlashEdge CDN zones for FlashEdge Storage

Every FlashEdge Storage needs to have a FlashEdge CDN to publicly access the files, applications, website, or anything else you store in the Storage.

Complete the following procedure to create a distribution.

1. Sign in to the FlashEdge.

2. Click on “Deploy resource” on the home page.

3. Choose your source server.

   1. Fill in the name of your source server.

   2. Select the FlashEdge Storage as the source server.

4. Select a caching behavior.

   1. For FlashEdge Storage, we recommend using the possibility to Cache Everything.

5. Click on “Create a Distribution”.

6. After creation, it may take some time (usually up to 15 minutes) for the distribution to deploy globally.

7. After the FlashEdge distribution is created for your FlashEdge Storage, you should be able to access files that are stored there by simply checking the corresponding path through the FlashEdge CDN distribution URL, for example, xxxxxxx.flashedge.net/images/pic1.png.
