title: Google Cloud Storage to serve website images
body: <p>We will launching a Google Campaign for our Website and expecting high number of users visiting our website.</p>
  <p>Hence, I did some pre-calculations and figured out that serving images from Cloud servers would be best approach, which are currently being served from dedicated server.</p>
  <p>I haven't got any clue on how Google Cloud Storage works or any other service. So can someone please guide me to relevant steps that I should be taking for hosting all our images to Google Cloud Storage and how can I serve them from Europe, and mapping of subdomain.</p>
  <p>Currently I am following this <a href="http://q42.com/blog/post/69909416598/serving-q42-com-images-from-a-cdn-with-google-cloud" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Guide</a></p>
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong>
  Before going for Cloud I compared the purpose of CDN vs Cloud and this what I figured out.</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p><strong>CDN</strong>: Used for serving contents from multiple regions: <em><strong>Speed is the purpose</strong></em></p>
  <p><strong>Cloud</strong>: Used for serving contents for high bandwidth usage: <em><strong>High Availability is the purpose</strong></em></p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>And my Main purpose is High Availability, I hope I have gained correct information from dear friend Google.</p>
