  1. BELUGA CDN What is CDN?

  2. WHAT IS CDN? CDN stands for Content Delivery Network. Essentially, it is a group of servers scattered all around the globe to cater to website visitors, depending on where they’re from. Proposal Overview

  3. CDN enables the fast transmission of images, javascript files, HTML pages, stylesheets, and other assets required to load Internet content. CDN is starting to gain more popularity as its demand continues to grow. Today, a good chunk of web traffic is largely channeled through CDNs. Websites like Netflix, Twitter, Amazon, and Facebook all make use of it. An efficient CDN also aids in securing websites from hackers that run malicious attacks.

  4. CDN Benefits The advantages and perks that come with a CDN differ as they’re reliant on the needs of an internet property and its size. The top benefits for a majority of users can be divided into 4 elements: Improve Website Loading CDNs improve the staying time people are on a website. Simply put, the faster a website is, the more users are likely to stay on a site longer.

  5. Reduce Bandwidth Budget Allocation CDNs can lessen the data extent a web host server is required to provide. This act in itself already reduces the need to splurge on hosting costs. Know that bandwidth consumption already takes a huge slice of the costs, so CDNs help website owners save. Improving Content Redundancy Huge amounts of hardware mishaps or traffic can hamper an ordinary website performance. Because of CDN’s apportioning nature, they’re built to withstand mishaps relating to hardware and take on more traffic a lot better than several origin servers.

  6. Enhance Site Security Because a CDN can provide security certificates, other important protection mergers, and DDoS mitigation most especially, CDNs enhance security even more. How does a CDN function? At its simplest, as defined earlier, a CDN is a structure of servers “chained” together to deliver content as reliably, cheaply, and quickly, as possible. To ensure connectivity and optimized speed, CDNs install servers usually at exchange points that surround various networks.

  7. Conclusion Furthermore, a CDN provider improves transit times and reduces costs simply by making use of a connection to these highly interconnected areas.
