Library CDNs

[Jim]

One option if you are using LibGuides is you could use the image storage feature and document storage content box types, though this definitely does not have any versioning power.  The interface for these tools is fairly simple, but you would need to manually grab the urls for each file (javascript, css, html, image).

I'm looking for a one place where I can consolidate and organize these files that is reliable (good uptime and good response time) and affordable (less expensive than hosting a complete website). In-as non-technical folks may need to access it, the interface for managing the files and directories needs to be friendly. E.G., AWS's native interface is too convoluted for newbies, but a program or web app built as a front-end designed to have simple management functions is the kind of thing I'm looking for (and something that mirrored AWS's built-in versioning would be awesome).
