Content Delivery Network (CDN) and Content Delivery for the PeopleFluent Learning Platform

Content Delivery Network (CDN) and Content Delivery for the PeopleFluent Learning Platform

This document provides a definitive overview of the architecture used for delivering content and assets within the PeopleFluent Learning platform.

Does the PeopleFluent Learning platform utilize a Content Delivery Network (CDN) like AWS CloudFront?
No. The PeopleFluent Learning product line does not currently utilize a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for serving static assets, media, or learning content.

How is content delivered to end-users?

All content, including:

  • Static assets (images, JavaScript, CSS)

  • Media (videos, audio, heavy files)

  • Learning modules (SCORM, AICC, xAPI, PDFs)

...is delivered directly from our core hosting and origin servers. This centralized approach allows for maximum control and flexibility over server-side logic, security protocols, and immediate content updates.

How does PeopleFluent manage content delivery performance and latency without a CDN?

Content delivery performance and latency are managed through dedicated optimization on our core infrastructure.

This includes:

  • Server-Side Caching: Implementing robust server-side caching mechanisms for frequently accessed items.

  • Advanced Network Routing: Utilizing sophisticated network routing to ensure efficient and timely distribution of all data and content from our core hosting environment.

What are the caching and optimization settings for frequently accessed items, such as videos?
Since all content is served directly from the origin servers, all caching and optimization are handled centrally at the infrastructure level. This means performance for high-demand content, such as video streaming, is a function of our core infrastructure's dedicated optimization and server-side tuning, ensuring performance while maintaining control over the entire delivery pipeline.
