<h1>Static Content</h1>
<p>Some content on a website does not change and therefore should be served
up either directly through the web server or a content delivery network (CDN).
Examples include JavaScript, image, and CSS files.</p>
<p>A CDN is a third party that serves your static files.
<a class="reference external" href="http://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/">Amazon CloudFront</a>,
<a class="reference external" href="http://www.akamai.com/">Akamai</a>, and
<a class="reference external" href="http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/public/files/">Rackspace Cloud Files</a>
are examples of CDNs. The purpose of a CDN is to remove the load of static
file requests from web servers that are handling dynamic web content. For
example, if you have an nginx server that handles both static files and
acts as a front for a Green Unicorn WSGI server on a 512 megabyte
virtual private server, the nginx server will run into resource
constraints under heavy traffic. A CDN can remove the need to serve static
assets from that nginx server so it can purely act as a pass through for
requests to the Green Unicorn WSGI server.</p>
<p>CDNs distribute request load globally by using data centers in different
locations.</p>
