Instead of loading content from a single origin server, CDNs cache and serve content from edge locations closer to users, significantly improving speed, reliability, and performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s digital landscape, where user experience directly impacts engagement and revenue, CDNs are essential for ensuring fast load times, high availability, and secure content delivery across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common use cases include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Accelerating website and web app performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delivering video
