NopCommerce Azure Blob Storage/CDN plugin

Release 1.5:
Improvements:
• Performance enhancements.
• Automatically move your images in Cloud storage/file system
• Automatically update your routes for Stylesheets & Java Script Files & images in your views

Hi,

The plugin is what we want. :)

Somethings need to double check:

1. Auto sync product, category images between azure sql and blob storage? When a product's images are updated, will it sync to blob automatically? For now we save pictures in db, so the plugin can migrate pictures to blob automatically?

I guess these are actually related questions.

2. Can it handle other static files such as banner pictures, css, javascript files?

3. When a cdn point is broken, will it read data (ex. product pictures) from original place?

Thanks.

Hi

Thank you for your message.

If you use blob storage for pictures we will not save them to the DB or File System. One of the goal of this plugin is to use cheaper storage for downloadable files/pictures. Also we wanted to allow customers to avoid  storage space limitations for web app and add CDN support.

Thanks for your answer.

1. So the plugin will upload existing pictures from azure sql to blob automatically when I install the plugin and change setting to use blob?

2. In other words, once we use the plugin and save picture in blob, pictures won't be saved to db?

3. If we move the application from azure to our local test environment without azure blob feature, how do we import pictures from blob to database?

Thanks again.

Thank you for your questions.
