Starfield CDN is licensed and innovative professional CDN is now "admitted player"

  

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the sixth batch of "content distribution network business" licenses, and the innovative professional CDN service provider OneThing Technology was listed. This is the first time that a domestic innovative professional CDN manufacturer has obtained an official license. Previously, such licenses were generally only issued to traditional CDN enterprises such as Netsux and Lanxun, or CDN businesses of cloud computing giants such as Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud.

This is considered as a signal. With the affirmation of the regulatory authorities on the sharing economy cloud computing model, the era of comprehensive competition in the CDN market has also arrived.

The competitive situation of CDN industry is becoming clearer

According to the current regulations of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, from January 1, 2018, any enterprise that fails to obtain a CDN license shall not continue to operate CDN business. This means that those enterprises without licenses will be excluded from the player queue in this market.

Previously, both traditional CDN enterprises and cloud computing CDN have obtained a varying number of licenses, and no enterprise in the innovative professional CDN camp has obtained a CDN license. This once caused market concern, whether innovative professional CDN will miss the decisive battle in the CDN arena?

From this perspective, the CDN license granted by OneThing is considered to be of symbolic significance: Hong Kong server All camps of CDN market have players in place. After the issuance of licenses at the end of the year, a new CDN market pattern may be formed, and the industry competition situation will gradually become clear.

Starfield CDN will welcome a new round of growth

As the world's first sharing economy model CDN, the satellite domain CDN once attracted the attention of the industry. It has the first million level wireless nodes, satellite domain scheduling, weak network acceleration and dynamic defense technologies in China, and has made qualitative improvements in many key performances of CDN. After two years of rapid development, Starfield CDN has become the preferred CDN service brand in China's live broadcasting industry.

Zeng Zhuo, the sales general manager of Starfield CDN, said that after obtaining the license, Starfield CDN would not be surprised to see a wave of higher growth. "Obtaining the license will undoubtedly greatly enhance our credibility."

This trust comes from the almost harsh evaluation indicators of CDN license plate. Due to the increasing importance, the Chinese government clearly regards CDN as an important part of network infrastructure in the "Broadband China" strategy. To this end, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has set up a strictly established CDN license qualification system to standardize and improve the access threshold for CDN enterprises. According to the regulations, CDN enterprises that want to obtain licenses need to go through three critical evaluations.

Not every CDN has enough technology to pass these tests, which is one of the reasons why the number of CDN enterprises with licenses on the market is less than 30% of the total.

The license itself is undoubtedly the most powerful endorsement of credibility for Star CDN, especially for its sharing economy cloud computing model. This model was once controversial because of its innovation. Now it has not only been tested by the market and customers, but also has been recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

It is reported that OneThing will launch the "Gamer Program" on August 15, and launch a new hardware product within the year to create "free computing that everyone can participate in". Dong Lei, Vice President of OneThing, said publicly: "OneThing is calling on more users with curiosity and exploration spirit to participate in the" free computing wave "of this planning field. The prospect of sharing economy cloud computing is infinite, and OneThing hopes to explore with more gamers. "

The licensed Starfield CDN is just sitting on the poker table, and will also face experienced and powerful rivals. Can you win the game? Let's wait and see.
