Seems now Google is launching CDN (Page Speed Service) based services.
So is this the end of commercial CDN ?
As we know, Google may now become one of the competitors of CDN Technology, but beyond that even if users get paid Google CDN services, there is also an additional advantage that they get more faster, optimized Search Engine Optimization of these CDN cached pages.
We can notice Google's Blog services gets instant Adsense approval, instant (or more quicker) SEO visibility and so on. So one can imagine similar advantages we can get via Google's Free/Paid CDN services too. Obviously good SEO visibility of all Google's cached/mirrored CDN pages is an implicit advantage. One can get this almost for no added cost, since users need to understand the fact that their cached pages are in Google's Network or in other words Google's Servers !
As Google known for its (or rather) has more reputation towards its free services. Hence there are possibilities one can imagine if Google introduces limited free CDN like services. One of the primary focus in the Google's perspective of CDN services is about improving page loading speed and so on.
Google also gained good reputation of all its paid services, namely ADwords, Google Applications and so on. Google is keen about providing best possible services w.r.t as much as possible Country specific payment options and so on. This is what makes Google highly affordable and extend its reach from small vendors, SOHO users to large corporate customers. This is where many existing commercial CDN vendors lack. Either they lack in transparent and simple pricing structure or they lack making affordable services. What actually needed is a simple DIY (Do It Yourself) based purchase -> configuration -> manageable interface and service to get custom CDN up and running within matter of few hours (if not minutes). Hope Google keeps up this promise like their other paid services mainly Google's Business Applications.
Hence this looks like a small baby step towards a huge innovative Cloud<>CDN technology and domain. Google already has its own/private cloud network with million possibilities, now if it enters CDN services, then it can create huge revolution !
Anyway wishing all the best wishes to Google's new endeavor !
