Global Content Delivery Network Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a distributed network of servers strategically positioned in various geographical locations to deliver web content and digital assets efficiently to end-users. CDNs work by caching and storing static content, such as images, videos, CSS files, and JavaScript, on these servers. When a user requests content from a website or application, the CDN automatically routes the request to the nearest server, reducing latency and speeding up the content delivery process. This approach minimizes the load on the origin server and optimizes the performance of the website or application, especially during high-traffic periods or in locations far from the origin server's location. CDNs also enhance website security by protecting against DDoS attacks and providing SSL encryption. They are widely used by content providers, e-commerce websites, and online platforms to improve user experience, reduce page load times, and ensure seamless content delivery across the globe.
