A Content Delivery Network (CDN) uses a network of globally distributed servers to deliver your content faster and more reliably. Instead of sending every request to a single origin server, the CDN caches and serves data from the nearest edge server to the user. This reduces latency, balances traffic loads, and keeps websites running smoothly even under high demand.
Key functions include:
Content caching stores static files like images, CSS, JavaScript, and videos at edge servers.
Intelligent routing automatically connects users to the closest, fastest server.
Built-in redundancy ensures uptime even if one server goes offline.
