How to scale out image hosting/serving?
- by Continuation
I asked this question on stackoverflow and it was suggested that I try it here:
I'm building a website where users can upload photos and I'd also convert uploaded photos into thumbnails.
Planning ahead, if the website gets popular, how do I scale it out so that the images (both original and thumbnails) will be stored in and served from multiple servers? Maybe a cluster? Is there any open source software that would help me in this?
Thanks.
