Product Overview
A content delivery network (CDN) service delivered across Continent 8's own global private network, giving your websites and applications a fast, cost-effective way to reach users wherever they are. The service combines content caching and delivery with built-in web and API protection, managed end to end by Continent 8.
Benefits
Bringing a CDN service together with our global private network gives you:
-
Lower latency, with content cached close to your users so pages and applications load faster.
-
Control over where content is served from, so you can match coverage to your target markets and in-jurisdiction requirements.
-
Smaller transfers through content compression, which speeds delivery and reduces data volumes.
-
Lower origin bandwidth costs, as caching absorbs repeat requests that would otherwise hit your origin servers.
-
Efficient delivery of large files and video on demand.
Product Features
A feature set built for performance, control and protection:
-
On-net CDN with origin on the same private network. When your origin is hosted with Continent 8, content and origin sit on one managed network, cutting the distance traffic has to travel.
-
Real-time statistics, so you can monitor traffic, cache performance and delivery through your portal.
-
Managed TLS certificates, provisioned and renewed for you, with support for your own certificates.
-
Instant purge and invalidation, clearing or refreshing cached content across the network immediately, by hand or via API.
-
Redundant origin support, so delivery continues if a primary origin becomes unavailable.
-
Full-site proxying with rapid set-up.
-
IPv6 delivery for IPv4 origins and content.
-
Standard web application firewall, protecting against the OWASP Top 10 most common web application security risks.
-
Advanced web application firewall, with managed rule sets that are maintained and updated as new threats are identified, plus bot detection.
