File Hosting

Thoth File Hosting offers a reliable and globally optimised solution for hosting and distributing your open access publications. Your content will be accessible under your own domain, while also delivered quickly and reliably to readers around the world via our Content Distribution Network.

Key features include:

• Integration of Publisher-Owned Domain: Maintain complete control over your branding and content. Simply add a DNS entry pointing to a subdomain of your choice to our servers, and we’ll handle the rest. Your Thoth-hosted open access files (PDFs, ePubs, cover image files, etc.) will appear seamlessly under your domain.
• Global Content Delivery Network (CDN): Our CDN ensures that your open access files are distributed and served from data centers worldwide. Files are uploaded to a central server and mirrored to CDN servers distributed across the globe, allowing users to download from the server nearest to them for faster access, reduced latency, and near-zero downtime.
• Structured and Consistent URLs: Thoth File Hosting simplifies access with clean, structured URLs based on DOIs. For example: https://books.oapublisher.org/10.12345/45678.pdf
  This format enhances discoverability and ensures a professional, consistent and easily parsable link structure.
• Automatic File Migration: Transitioning to Thoth File Hosting is effortless. Our system can automatically retrieve files based on your metadata, upload them to the CDN, and then update the metadata accordingly. This ensures a smooth, uninterrupted migration process.

Thoth File Hosting is your one-stop solution for reliable, scalable, and easy file distribution. By combining state-of-the-art technology with an intuitive setup, we ensure your open access publications reach readers efficiently and effectively, all while enabling you to keep in full control over your open access books and chapters.

👀 File hosting is included in the Thoth Obelisk, Sphinx, and Pyramid packages.
