Setting up Object Store and CDN

Article Topics: CDN, Content, Sets

Please Note: When using Object Store, TMM strongly recommends using the same company for content storage and delivery.

Using a separate server from your NATS server to store your content, specifically a server with Object Storage capabilities for more efficient storage. The added benefit you gain by using a separate server is faster performance.

MojoHost

NATS CMS is integrated with MojoHost Object Store and CDN for storing and delivering your content.

MojoHost Object Store & CDN

Before setting up a Content Server in the NATS CMS, you will need to contact MojoHost to set up an Object Store bucket. This is where your content will be served from. The name of the bucket must be unique across all clients, and so the name of the bucket should be your username followed by "natscmsbucket".

For example, if your NATS username is "myusername" you will ask MojoHost to name your Object Store Bucket:

myusernamenatscmsbucket

In addition to the S3 bucket, you will need a Content Delivery Network(CDN) from MojoHost. The MojoHost CDN will be used to deliver the content that has been processed by the Worker and inserted into the Object Storage Bucket.

Ensure that MojoHost sets the following settings when creating your CDN:

  • Override Origin Content Disposition - Enable

  • Filename Parameter - fn

  • Content Disposition Parameter - cd

Once complete, MojoHost will provide you with the following details, which you must keep to use in the setup process:

  • Access Key

  • Access Secret

  • CDN URL

  • CDN Secret
