I eventually settled on an object storage + CDN image hosting setup. Right now I mainly use Qiniu object storage with CDN acceleration. The goal is not to be flashy—the point is to keep image management, access speed, and cost under control.Documentation Index

Who this setup is for
- Anyone running a blog or knowledge base and needing long-term image hosting
- Anyone who wants to manage screenshots, cover images, and article illustrations in one place
- Anyone who wants relatively stable image URLs that are easy to reference over time
My basic approach
- Storage layer: object storage keeps the original images.
- Delivery layer: CDN handles acceleration and HTTPS.
- Upload tools: upload directly from local tools such as screenshot apps or image uploaders.
- Compression strategy: treat screenshots and custom graphics differently to keep file sizes down.

Practical tips
- Standardize naming and directory structure before doing large-scale uploads.
- Compress images before uploading whenever possible to save bandwidth and storage.
- Pay close attention to hotlink protection, traffic alerts, and billing thresholds.
