Create a Site

Article summary

A site is a logical container for a host configuration. First, you create the site and then you define the configuration parameters.

To create a site:

  1. Open this URL: https://qc-services.cqloud.com/md/media-delivery-management.
  2. If you are prompted to login, enter your Qwilt Cloud (QC) Services user name and password.
    If you require Qwilt Cloud credentials, please send an email to support@qwilt.com.
  3. In the My Media Sites page, select Add Media Site.
  4. In the Add New Media Site dialog, enter a site name and select Add Media Site.
    The user-defined site name should be intuitive. It's how the site is identified in the list of sites on the My Media Sites page, and in some of the Qwilt reports and APIs.
  5. In the Media Site Configuration tab, click Add Host to begin configuring the site.

    Note: The CNAME you'll need to route your website to the CDN site is displayed on the Media Site Configuration page, under Media Site Info. When you are ready to direct traffic from your website to the CDN site, update your domain's DNS settings with the CNAME of the configured Media Delivery site. (Alternatively, use HTTP routing.)


Note: A site is configured for a particular traffic type, to allow for optimization based on the unique characteristics of the traffic type. Currently, these optimizations are implemented by Qwilt. Please contact your account manager or email support@qwilt.com to optimize your site for the relevant traffic type.
