REF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_delivery_network

A content delivery network or content distribution network is a system of computers where our website is stored so it’s data (images/videos) can be served from multiple locations.
However I dont want to use any online paid/unpaid CDN services but would like to setup CDN on my own high speed server. I did google a lot but dont see any such CDN script which i can install on my server.

I am looking for such script which can support High level cache-control.

Can you please share if you know any good CDN script developed in PHP?

Thanks in advance.

A CDN is more than a script on a single server.

You can do what we do, which is serve our PHP documents from our Apache server. We then have a separate web server set up called LightHTTPd, which has the potential to be faster than Apache, which we use to serve up our static content. We ensure to not compile any modules (such as a php interpreter, etc) into LightHTTPd, other than GZIP.
