I’m using Google Drive to upload images, videos, etc. However, I find its performance quite slow, even though I’ve implemented chunking. Is there any optimization method to boost the upload speed? Or are there any CDNs similar to Google Drive but with faster speeds? Please help me address this issue. Thank you :<
