This would probably be designed better using Cloud Files, since you really don't need compute power, just storage. You can store the PDFs in a container marked as Public, which publishes them to the Akamai CDN network, making retrieval fast no matter where in the world the request comes from. If anyone wants more details, I can show you how easy it would be do in Python; we also offer a .Net SDK if that would work better. -- Ed Leafe _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/02001d00-7609-462c-963a-f9f8412ee...@leafe.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
