How to upload static files to a remote server in Drupal 7 instead of local filesystem? I've recently had to migrate from Django to Drupal 7 due to web server constraints. One of the aspects of my old Django setup that I would like to preserve is hosting static content like images and other media on a remote server as I have free access to a massive server for this purpose.

With Django, this was as simple as editing a line or two in the settings.py file. My search for how to do this in Drupal has so far been pretty fruitless. Can someone please suggest a relatively simple way of doing this automatically?

The website in question will have multiple contributors, most of whom will be non-technical, so this should be something that is handled automatically.
You should look into the CDN project.
I am think of implementing it myself, but have no practical experience to impart.
