What is cloud CDN?

(CDN) or Content Distribution Network is a distributed network of proxy servers and their data centers. Cloud CDN uses Goggle’s globally distributed edge points of presence to cache HTTP load balanced content close to your users. Accumulating content at the edges of Google’s network provides faster delivery to your users and simultaneously reduces serving costs.

CDN does not host content and cannot be replaced by a proper web hosting, it simply helps cache content that ultimately improves website performance. Other advantages of cloud CDN are improving website load times, reduces bandwidth costs and improves website security.
