Infographic of cloud services
Absorb LMS is being used by hundreds of organizations, big, medium, and small. Some of our clients serve as few as a couple of hundred learners. Others use Absorb LMS to manage very large initiatives of more than 350,000 learners.
So, don’t worry. Our platform won’t break as your needs grow.

Business growth scalability

Using Absorb LMS hosted, the transition from a small number of learners to a large number of learners is painless and invisible. The system won’t slow down, you won’t receive messages saying you’ve reached capacity, or face any other annoyance.

CloudFront Content Delivery Network

CloudFront is a content distribution network (CDN) provided by Amazon Web Services. CDNs store copies of your site content at various locations around the world allowing your users to connect to and download from the location that will provide the best speed. If you have learners that are distributed globally or who are in locations other than EU or NA they should notice a significant improvement in latency.

CDN locations around the world

What kind of content is stored?

Initially, we are using the CDN to deliver static resources such as:

  • Images/ UI Elements
  • Back end website code
  • MP4 videos
  • Resources (PDFs, documents, etc.)
