Intro

In today’s digital landscape, efficiently serving images is critical for website performance. Users expect fast-loading, responsive websites, and images often account for the majority of a page’s weight. In this article, I’ll walk you through building a powerful, scalable image CDN using open-source tools that you can deploy in your own infrastructure.

The Architecture

Our image CDN consists of three main components:

  1. MinIO — An S3-compatible object storage backend that stores original images
  2. imgproxy — A fast and secure image processing service that resizes and optimizes images on-the-fly
  3. Cloudflare — Providing CDN capabilities through Cloudflare Tunnel

Great marketing quote in the title — but honestly, the underlying principle is always true: keep it simple, keep it safe.

I want to structure this around four topics:

  • Static website
  • Tools
  • Security
  • Monitor

Each could be its own post. This one will cut across all of them because they’re connected.

This is not a post about how to create a blog. This post inspects some technology that can simplify your life or your work with small but important concepts.
