Aksela is a micro-caching platform developed by Medianova. Micro caching ensures that your content can be cached even for seconds. It serves static & dynamic content and API requests on your website through edge servers closest to end users.
By laying between the origin server and the end user, Aksela both increases performance and provides an additional layer of security. In addition to the security measures provided by Aksela, WAF (Web Application Firewall) can be provided as an additional security service.
You can access the Medianova cloud panel by logging in with your username and password at cloud.medianova.com
Click on “CDN → Create CDN Resource” option from the menu on the left side of the panel.
In the next screen, Dynamic CDN Resource is selected from the “Start building your CDN”
Fill in the requested information for Dynamic CDN Resource.
Your Origin URL and Website URL cannot be identical. To differentiate your Origin URL from your Website URL, you can follow one of the two following methods:
Login to your DNS hosting provider’s client panel and add an A record that points your origin address (different than the Website URL) on your DNS server. This will be the origin URL for Aksela to retrieve your site’s content.
Example: Origin URL - yourdomain.com
Fill in the Origin URL field using the IP address information instead of a URL. In that case, the Website URL has to be filled in the Origin Set header. This can be configured in CDN Resources → Headers settings, after Aksela CDN Resource is created.
Example: Origin URL - https://IP.IP.IP.IP Origin Set Header - yourdomain.com
5 . When all the information is filled in correctly, the Dynamic CDN Resource is created by clicking the “Create CDN Resource” button. It will take a few minutes to be active on all edge servers. (When the “ping example.mncdn.com” command is run, getting a response from an IP address means that the CDN Resource is active).
