My team and I at work are looking into how to publish a very large file. Currently they are looking into CDN options. That obviously has to be one option. I think we should also be offering it via torrent. That will help take load off of the servers and the cdn. I will also make us look like a cool technically savvy company.

I have seen things like linux distro iso's being offered for download via torrent from proper professional websites.

How do people set that up?

Obviously that more professional sort of torrent isn't just some guy making a torrent file in uTorrent and posting it.

Is there a torrent-server one uses? Or are there cdn's that offer torrent download?

(If I'm asking in the wrong place, I would greatly appreciate pointers to the right place.)
