After using Cursor, we gave open-source VS Code a try. The motivation was openness, cost, flexibility, and control. A closed editor product can be convenient, but it also defines too much of the workflow for you. We wanted the opposite direction: keep the workflow editable, swappable, and easy to experiment with. The first thing that made that shift realistic was the VS Code extension Continue. Continue gives it a usable AI interface, which is the point where VS Code starts to [...]

HLS vs RTMP for Live Streaming: Which Ingest Method Should You Use?

Leave a reply

When people compare HLS and RTMP, they often treat them like a pure protocol showdown. In practice, for CDNsun CDN HTTP Live, the more useful question is simpler: how should your live stream enter the platform? Your source first enters a Publishing Point, which is the ingest layer. That Publishing Point then feeds a CDN HTTP Live service, the delivery layer that distributes the stream through CDNsun's global network. Source -> Publishing Point -> CDN HTTP Live service -> viewer playback That [...]

Fast Speech-to-Text for Ubuntu: Push-to-Talk Dictation That Fits Developer Workflows

- AI
Adriana

Leave a reply

If you want fast speech-to-text for Ubuntu, start with the CDNsun speech-to-text-for-ubuntu project on GitHub. We think this matters because modern developer work is increasingly language-heavy. We write prompts, bug reports, architecture notes, issue summaries, and rough instructions all day. In that kind of workflow, voice input, voice typing, and push-to-talk dictation become useful only when they are fast enough to keep up. That is the important shift here. This project is not just about speech recognition on Linux. It is [...]

If you are new to OpenClaw, we recommend starting with our first OpenClaw installation guide. It covers the simplest possible setup to get you “on board” quickly: install OpenClaw on a VM and create your first agent. Start here: our first OpenClaw installation guide. In this article, we share how we run OpenClaw with multiple agents, sub-agents, and Telegram bots. This is not “the right way” to do it, it is simply our approach at CDNsun. If you like it, feel [...]

Create your first AI agent with OpenClaw hosted on Virtual Machine (VM)

Leave a reply

In this guide, we will install free and open-source OpenClaw AI on a self-hosted DigitalOcean Ubuntu 24.04 droplet (VM), connect it to the OpenAI API, and run your first agent using the built-in TUI and the local Web UI via SSH tunneling. The setup is a bit hands-on, but it pays off with flexibility. What is OpenClaw and why host it on your own VM? OpenClaw is a framework for running AI agents with a modular architecture (agents, channels, skills, [...]

CDN Request Path DNS TLS Cache HIT vs MISS and TTL Strategy

Chadrick Peters

Leave a reply

CDNsun and other CDNs sit between your users and your origin to reduce latency, increase throughput, and protect infrastructure from traffic spikes. But the real gains (or disappointments) come down to how a single request is routed, negotiated over TLS, evaluated for caching, and fetched from origin on a miss. This article walks through that end-to-end request path and the decisions that most affect performance and cache hit ratio. From URL to edge: DNS routing, connection reuse, and the TLS [...]

OVHcloud and Hetzner announced broad price increases that hit VPS, cloud instances, dedicated servers, and even add-ons like IPv4 addresses. This article explains what’s really driving the increases, why the two providers are reacting differently, what to expect next, and how hosting providers can reduce risk and costs. AI changed the supply chain economics, and RAM is the new bottleneck Both OVHcloud and Hetzner point to the same root cause: the cost and availability of core server components (especially RAM and [...]

Secure HLS on CDNsun with URL Signing and Access Control

Leave a reply

Secure HLS on CDNsun HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) is easy to deliver at scale, but it is also easy to steal: a single leaked .m3u8 can be shared, embedded elsewhere, or used for unauthorized restreaming. Because HLS is built from playlists and many small segments, protecting only one URL is rarely enough. This article explains how to secure HLS on CDNsun using URL signing and complementary controls like hotlinking, geo-blocking, IP rules, and password protection. URL signing for HLS on CDNsun: [...]

DNS Glue Records Explained – How to Check Glue with dig

Leave a reply

Glue records are one of those DNS details you only notice when they break. They sit at the boundary between the parent zone (like .com) and your domain, and they can determine whether resolvers can even reach your authoritative nameservers. In this article we explain what glue records are, when they are required, how they improve reliability, and how to check your own domain for glue with simple, practical commands. What glue records are (and the DNS “chicken and egg” [...]

curl CDN diagnostics: HTTP headers, caching, TLS timing

Leave a reply

Comprehensive Diagnostic Methodologies for Global Content Delivery Networks via the curl Command-Line Utility Modern CDNs hide enormous complexity behind clean, fast responses. Anycast routing, TLS termination, cache layers and security policies can all fail in subtle ways. In this article we focus on using curl as a transparent, protocol-level diagnostic tool that lets engineers at CDNsun customers and beyond observe, test and optimize end-to-end CDN delivery with surgical precision. Transparent HTTP/S Diagnostics for CDN Routing and Caching At the heart of CDN [...]
